Brian Levenson - Some feedback from EDU on the licensing of Teams. On March 3rd, the Teams license appeared in our Tenant and was enabled for all 100,000 + users. (we have a script which notifies us of new O365 licenses so we were alerted when it appeared). However, since we are EDU we cannot enable Teams at this point, so our users were seeing the new Teams icon and then getting the "Talk to your administrator" message when trying to access Teams. Since we have 100,000 + users in our tenant, it then takes us close to a day to disable the license via Powershell and our Help Desk has to deal with the end user confusion.
We have provided feedback in past on how the "automatic enabling" of new features impacts large environment who need time to plan, manage and communicate new services or features, so I just wanted to take opportunity to reiterate that point.
