When will Microsoft Forms be finalized
Hi All, I was wondering if a microsoft employee could provide some color around when Forms will have a final version release? Also has there been an instance where something was put out in "relea...
Although in the IT world one can never be sure, Microsoft has a current focus of Cloud first, mobile first. All their efforts are focussed in this direction. All of their products which conform to this, I believe, are relatively safe for the long term, especially where there is no duplication or large overlap with another offering. Although there may be overlap between Forms and other offerings, Forms is the newer and more actively developed offering.
Microsoft has put a significant amount of effort into Forms. It has been around for a while now, but until recently, was only available to education tenants. Since around June 15, 2017 Forms is now also available to business tenants, noted as a preview. Microsoft is expanding Forms availability, therefore I don't think they are going to scrap it anytime soon.

MicrosoftCian, you got it! We're moving beyond First Release Entire Organization now, into the rest of production. ALL licensed users can access https://forms.office.com now, and we'll roll out the app launcher tile gradually.
And indeed, you can configure access to Forms via user licenses, as you've been able to do since mid-June. We will not change any configuration you've made previously as we roll out.

John Toewscan we assume that future updates to Forms will be deployed throught the Select First Release process?
Is there a list somewhere that identifies which services will have features deployed throught the First Release process and which ones will not? i.e., i know that Yammer and Teams don't use it but this is just based on my own experience but there are many other services and I'm not sure about all of them. It would be helpful if this was documented somewhere.
