Dear Matt: Navigating New Features on Microsoft Teams with the Microsoft 365 Roadmap

Hello, everyone. My name is Matt. And I am the chief technology officer at Vistacom. Thanks for joining us for this week's segment of Dear Matt. Where I answer questions submitted by you about anything related to AV technology and our industry. My hope is to use my thirty years of experience in the audio visual industry to help make your job a little bit easier. So today's question, I am always getting blindsided by new features being added to teams Is there a way to get advance notice regarding new features or any on the road map? Well, there sure is. There's actually a official Microsoft road map that you could use. So if you go and you Google from Microsoft three sixty five road map, you'll find the site. And teams and Microsoft teams room and even like Word and Excel all fall under the Microsoft three sixty five suite of products. So you can actually search for updates on all those products, but there's a filter in there. Just filter for teams, and it'll sort all the features that are coming up. Now they're classified as in development, rolling out, and launched. So in development, obviously, in development, rolling out has some general avail availability, but it's just getting started. Launch generally means it's it's generally available. If you're admin gives you that feature. So when you click on a specific feature, you can find out more details about the feature, you know, when it was last modified, when it was even added to the platform, and you could read all about the features that are coming up. Another good source of information is the Microsoft YouTube channel. There you'll find lots of informative videos. And in the videos, they actually demonstrate the new features for so you can see how they work. So, like, many things, YouTube is a great resource for finding out this kind of information. Well, that's a wrap for today. I'd love to answer any of your questions. There are no stupid questions. Anything goes, All you have to do is go and submit your questions on our website. And then come back every Friday to join me for the next Dear Mac question. Thanks for watching. See you next week.
