Hey Harold,
The 'Mute All Participants' feature is coming this quarter.
I forgot to mention that in Skype for Business, the meeting organizer has the ability to mute and un-mute all or even one person at a time. I assumed (wrongly, it appears) that since Teams would be replacing Skype for Business, that the options from Skype would carry over.
MS must have gotten feedback on this and changed it for Teams.
Actually I bet MS got feedback about Skype and didn’t keep it updates through continuous investment and instead bought a whole new company’s product to replace it and some of those features simply were not the same. That’s why teams is still playing catch-up; but the strength of the teams foundation/architecture has enabled them to make great strides quickly. They still have a ways to go but I see them becoming a webex competitor soon.
