    I really wanted to like groups -- and mostly do. But that fact that any group member can delete an item from the group someone defeats the purpose. We want to use groups as a running message board, but someone can accidently delete a message before anyone else has read it.

     

    Teams sort of fill the same purpose, but groups seem like a equally good solution (except for the delete issue)

    At the moment, Office 365 Groups are horrible to work with and administrate. They completely fail to provide basic features in the PC/Mac versions of Outlook for example. Even basic lifecycle issues were completely ignored. I strong recommend the engineers in the different microsoft teams STOP trying to develop their own ideas about use cases and set about establishing the most very basic functionality.

      Vincent sorry to hear you are not finding value in groups Outlook.

      Can you please share the exact issues you are experiencing with both PC & Mac and what versions you are using?

      What lifecycle issues did you encountered please?

        Can't find the (Get-AzureADDirectorySetting) cmdlet referenced in the video anywhere.  It is not in 2.0.1.6 of AzureAd. Would you please direct me to the exact file and version where the cmdlet can be found?

  • Hi Christophe. It seems that this session is linked with the wrong slide deck. Where could I go to download the correct slide deck? Thank you! https://myignite.microsoft.com/videos/53450
