Federation related problems as 3rd parties migrate to Teams
In Skye we federate with several domains. We have not licensed our users for Teams yet - we still use Skype. Some our our federated partners have migrated to Teams and are now sending out Teams m...
Why would you not license users for Teams? Long as you set your coexistence/ upgrade mode to Skype only. Your users will notice no difference in their setup. If they try using Teams for other than meetings they won’t have Teams to do anything with if you restrict group creation. Anyway. Just curious as to why you wouldn’t license!
Thanks Chris. I'd not even considered the coexistence setting option. Testing now. This could be the way to go. Thanks for the idea.
If this works as you suggest then we would be ok licensing everyone.

- Something to be aware of when licensing all your users for Teams - unless you have restricted who can create Office 365 Groups, then any licensed user would be able to create a new Team / Office 365 Group / Planner / SharePoint site, etc.
- We have group creation locked down, so hopefully this will work for us.
