Hi Mike, I was really psyched that Teams Live Events will allow staff in our non-profit to schedule their own webinars with large numbers of external participants. We've been using Skype Meeting Broadcast now, which requires using a web scheduling interface and doesn't support screen-sharing. One of the most important things in events with anonymous, external participants is low-friction to join the event. With Skype Meeting Broadcast we had people viewing with browsers on their iPads, iPhones and Android phones. With Teams Live Events all of those participants would be prompted to install the Teams app, which we can't expect them to do. I happen to have the Teams client installed on my own iPad, but it wasn't able to tune into a Live Event.
Why would Microsoft go backwards in terms of providing easy access via browser, like every other webinar provider? Thanks, Paul
