Microsoft Teams for Free!

We’ve talked about using Microsoft Teams in past posts and newsletters, so you should be familiar with this tool.

Microsoft Teams is a communication tool that combines individual and group chat, voice calls, video calls, file sharing, collaboration, and much more. We use Teams to communicate with our Engineers and Admin staff spread across four states in the U.S. and Ontario, Canada. Teams is part of your Basic and Standard 365 licenses (formerly Essentials and Premium). Exchange Online Plan 1 licenses do not include Teams.

Now here’s the fun part…

Microsoft is providing a 365 Business Basic license (formerly Business Essentials), an $8 per month value FOR FREE until the end of the year! This license is called Teams Exploratory, so you can test ride Teams for your organization. If you’re interested in using Teams, or adding your EOP1 users to Teams as a trial, call the Help Desk (704-814-8819).
