Microsoft Stream licensing in O365
- Jul 18, 2017This is correct. Every user needs a license to access Microsoft Stream. If you are a part of Office 365, Stream is present in Kiosk SKU which does not allow uploading. Here are the licensing details which lists the capabilities available in each O365 SKU. https://stream.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/stream-license-overview/
If you are interested in the Stream Standalone Plan 1, outside of Office 365, then as an admin you can control which users can upload content to your stream portal. Here is the link to the article to do that - https://stream.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/stream-restricting-uploaders/.
However, all users will need to have a Stream license in either case.
Marc Mroz We currently deliver (in-person) medium-large group cybersecurity education to other members of state agencies. These participants are part of their own tenants, however they all end if the same TLD. Based on the description of how Stream licensing works, this would not be the solution to move into to shift that educational delivery to an online format. What is the recommended platform for 1-to-Many presentations and education delivery within the Microsoft platform?
The solution would need to allow external tenants and guests to:
- Be provided a link (possibly with a passcode)
- View the streaming content (no upload)
- Participate in Q&A via Raise Hand and chat function
- ** Nice to have - Rate the content at the end of the presentation
- Track join time and Exit metrics
kf916cnd - From your requirements, it sounds as if something created as a Teams live event aligns pretty well. What are your thoughts on that approach? Content ratings are not yet included, but you might post a link to a Microsoft Form at the end of the event to collect that feedback.
