simultaneous meetings in Microsoft teams?

Hi: Please advise how many multiple simultaneous calls we can join in MS Teams . Also is there a way to moderate multiple meetings in channels to bring back the participants in one meeting?

Hi SIqbal_2019

Using One Teams Application you can join only one Teams Call. You can always join one call from the Teams Desktop Application and the second call from the Microsoft Teams Web Application. The only issues I see would be for moderation. If you have handful of people joining to both the meeting this is doable. But if this are large would recommend to keep it separate.

As an alternative in case you want to run multiple teams application on the desktop here is the below link for the reference.

Hello! SIqbal_2019

I believe this question asked specially about 'meet now' calls you can spontaneously join in a Team Channel. This is my issue also.

So the example is: We have a PI Planning meeting all day. Instead of having duplicate meetings on the calendar, we plan to just "Meet Now" in our 'General' team channel before we join the calendar meeting. However, Teams allowed up to create multiple meetings in the General channel minutes apart. Those in the other call were 'in the right place at the right time' but still not with the rest of the team.

Thank you,

Ben
