Office 365 Groups Explained - New blog series
- Hey Steven!
Skype is not integrated to Office 365 Groups, Microsoft Teams is and does provide Chat/Meeting functionality. The tech used is Skype, but not to the point to put it in there.
I put SharePoint under Site & File, meaning everything you mentioned above. The description also mentions that it gives you everything SharePoint Site Collection gives you. News aka Pages in a library, Lists, Document Libraries not for pages, etc... PowerApps, Flows and all kind of things that can be attached to SharePoint.
Kept it simple in the interest of being able to quick consuming it.
Just curious though, did something in the way I put SharePoint confuse you?
Will continue to work on it as things change, thanks for commenting!
Office 365 Groups are the single most changeable part of the entire service. I say this from the perspective of someone who has attempted to document the changing landscape of groups for the past two years in the "Office 365 for IT Pros" ebook. To give some insight into the degree of change, I believe that our first chapter on the topic occupied some 25 pages, which we thought was pretty decent coverage at that time. Now, chapter 9 has expanded to 82 pages, so it's a monster (we plan to split the chapter for the fourth edition of the book).
If anyone would like to let us know about stuff that we need to cover that isn't already there, I'd be interested to know what you think... So that 82 pages becomes 100+ and we have a mini book all about Groups (and we haven't yet documented how Yammer uses Office 365 Groups because that feature is not yet available).
