Trying to set up a Microsoft Meeting Room
- Jul 06, 2020
Hi SKGLO ,
I think you have the right of it.
So you essentially need the Meeting Room SKU, which you would assign to the account setup and used on the meeting room device.
The nod to Skype for Business Online 2 is more for organisations that may be in a Hybrid State or yet to fully have their users in Teams Only mode. So although the license still exists as part of M365 plans, come 31st July 2021, Skype for Business Online will retire. It is the Teams license SKU you need to worry about having for your users, unless like I say your tenant is fairly old and existed in a time that pre dates Teams or you are in a Hybrid mode.
You can validate if you are Teams Only by going to the Teams Admin Centre > Org Settings > Upgrade Settings
