New Teams Deployment Question

For those who are planning or have already deployed the New Microsoft Teams to your organization, have you uninstalled the Classic Teams from your end-users computers in conjunction with your rollout? Or have you left it running side by side?

    I can only answer from an end-user point of view:
    In my Teams window there is a selector - "Try the new Teams" - which makes me believe that New Teams is installed side by side with Classic Teams.
    And this is lucky, since there are still a lot of issues when using New Teams. Almost all in our local office have now switched back to Classic Teams because of non-working features.
  • garyleung1981 I have yet to see anyone install New Teams as the only version, I imagine that once it's GA we might start to see that happening, but while it's Public Preview I doubt many would take the risk.

      Fully agree steven and think this will be like that for a while even in GA companies want to have the option to quickly switch
