9 tips for meeting with Microsoft Teams Invite anyone via email. Do you need to meet with someone outside of your organization? Don’t worry, with Anonymous Join, you can schedule a Teams meeting with anyone with a valid email address even if they are not in your organization. Admit attendees from the Lobby. Do you need a few seconds to get everything prepared? By default, all attendees who are not from your organization will arrive in a virtual lobby after which they will have to be admitted to join the actual meeting. Mute the noisy attendees. Tired of hearing a dog barking? In large meetings (> 5 people), anyone who joins after the meeting has started, will join as muted thereby reducing noise in the meeting. Further, if you notice any noise from others, you can mute that person, or mute everyone, easily from the roster. Join a meeting or initiate a phone call without a plug-in. Who has time for downloads?! You can now enjoy a plugin-less experience in a web browser where a meeting or a call just works! You can simply go to teams.microsoft.com from Edge or Chrome and to join a Teams meeting or from Edge to initiate a 1:1 call. Let others get in the driver seat. What happens when you see something someone else doesn’t? With Application Sharing, if someone is sharing their desktop, you can either request to have control of it or have the sharer give you control of their desktop. Get help with Interactive Troubleshooting. Have you ever forgotten to unmute yourself before you made a great argument in the meeting? With Interactive Troubleshooting, Teams will alert you if it detects you're trying to speak but you are still muted. A lot on the page, here’s the highlights https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-Teams-Blog/9-tips-for-meeting-with-Microsoft-Teams/ba-p/151444
