Using Teams for Coworking Spaces vs Slack
Hi, we are currently using E3 Office 365 licences for our team members and we are looking to switch from Slack to Teams in order to enable the communication with our community.
As far as I understand there is a limited ratio (1-5) for inviting guests in our channels in Teams. As we are a staff of 30 with a community of 300+ and growing this ratios is not working for us.
Is there any option trough which we could use the Teams to enable communication withing our larger community? Currently we are using Slack for our domain and is very easy, however to would like to further integrate our Office 365 into our operations.

Hi,
For Teams there is no guest license or restriction how many guests you can invite per user. But there is a limit for Azure AD premium services, and that limit is 1:5. So if you have 10 Azure AD Premium P1 licenses you will be able to invite 50 guests using features included in the Azure AD Premium P1 license, like MFA.

And I recommend that you require your guests to use MFA and that is an Azure AD Premium P1 feature you need to consider licenses. So you could buy a couple of extra licenses that you don't assign to any users, since there is actually no hard limit for this.
