StaffHub licensing requirements
Here is the QA for staff hub from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/blog/2017/01/12/microsoft-staffhub-is-here/ it's an older article but F1 license is the same as K1 which will be your minimum license you will need for the (Kiosk/deskless) works.
Q. Which Office 365 plans include Microsoft StaffHub?
A. StaffHub is available as part of the Office 365 K1, E1, E3 and E5 plans (including the Education version of these plans).

yup, F1 is for FrontLine workers like Retail Colleagues. We have 75,000 of them here.
Also consider that StaffHub is going to be absorbed into Teams over the next year or so. A little like how there is a version of Teams optimised for schools with unique features, there will be Frontline worker specific features coming for Teams.
- Does your company find good ROI from the F1 investment? I'm new to the retail world and looking for use cases and stories from the field to see how to drive this type of adoption.
In stores we use SharePoint and Yammer extensively, and email to a lesser extent. Clearly usage is very different to office workers, Yammer is used extensively from personal phones, typically outside shift hours. SharePoint is a portal that provides all of our procedures, layouts, training etc.
We're currently planning to deploy Teams to displace some consumer tools that are creating a problem. For us the staffhub features will come s part of that.
- Is the value of this supported by your executive teams? Was it driven from a certain business group?
Is there any specific corp. operations department that sponsors or works with this as communication vehicle?
I did watch the Employee Engagement Summit video that showed how KFC used Yammer to reduce their Loss Prevention.
Thank you!
- Interesting to know!
