Microsoft has been considering various ways to attract more users to Microsoft Teams. One of the options that shuffle is to launch a free version that is not linked to Office 365. Although for now, this has not happened. And that could help the platform to fight against rivals like Slack. It is likely that this will come soon, but for now, the platform has been updated with some significant developments.
Microsoft Teams is updated and allows guest access
There has been a significant change in the update that has reached Microsoft Teams. Since from now on, guests are allowed access to it. So it will not be necessary to belong to a specific team.
Microsoft Teams allows guest access
This new function is already available on the platform. So any user will be able to test it and give access to a guest to the work of a team. Regardless of whether that person belongs to that team or not. So if a person at a specific time needs timely access, he will be able to obtain it. Also, no need to belong to the team.
It will be necessary for some team members to formalize the invitation through the application. They should look for the option to add members in the options bar. You will have to enter the details of the person to be invited and an email. All that is asked is that the person has a Microsoft account (Hotmail or Outlook).
That is a remarkable change for Microsoft Teams. That makes the rules a bit more flexible. So we will have to see what more changes the application leaves us in the coming months. Since the company seems determined that it can reach more users.
