Due to the introduction of Microsoft 365 Copilot, all public Teams workgroups (teams) have been made private to private to reduce the risk of data leakage. Please note that due to the change, all Teams workgroups are private. 

To create a public Teams workgroup (team) site, contact IT helpdesk.

Microsoft Teams Premium is a paid service that adds a number of additional features to the standard Teams experience that make meetings more personal, smarter and safer.

Here are some of the most important features:

  For more information about transcribing, check Use live captions in Microsoft Teams meetings.
• AI-powered meetings: Automatic creation of meeting notes, suggested tasks and personalized highlights.
• Personalized meetings and webinars: Ability to add branding, organization backgrounds and more to meetings and webinars.
• Advanced Security: Protect meetings with watermarks, sensitivity labels, end-to-end encryption, and recording permission restrictions.
• Virtual Appointments: Advanced features for managing and tracking virtual appointments, including text message reminders and branded waiting rooms.
• 3D Rooms: Microsoft Mesh enables the creation of immersive employee experiences such as general meetings and onboarding.
