The workplace is rapidly evolving, and as we’re emerging from the time of “remote everything,” it’s clear that the ways we stay in touch and collaborate are also changing. The workplace of the future will accommodate hybrid scenarios in which some people may work from the office while others may work remotely, or some fluid combination of the two. Organizations will need meeting rooms that serve as hubs for hybrid work.
Effective meeting room experiences enable users to start or join a meeting quickly for maximum productivity. Proactive management, real-time monitoring, and remediation keep rooms functional, up-to-date, and secure.
Today, we’re excited to launch Microsoft Teams Rooms Premium. This offering builds on the Microsoft Teams Rooms Standard experience and management capabilities available from the Teams Admin Center by combining intelligent software, dedicated experts, and enhanced insights from across organizations to continuously improve the meeting room experience.
With Microsoft Teams Rooms Premium, we provide 24/7 management and monitoring of your room operating system and software, surfacing insights and alerts around any action needed on-site and taking remote action on your behalf as permitted. Today’s offering is just the beginning, and we look forward to expanding with additional premium experiences in the future.
Using Microsoft Teams Rooms Premium and leveraging our partner ecosystem, we can address all your meeting room operational needs including: 1) great device setup, 2) ongoing management and monitoring, and 3) on-site support.
Let’s take a closer look at the core components of the offering:

We’re excited to announce collaboration with partners—including AVI-SPL, Datavision, NTT, UnifiedCommunications.com, and Yorktel—who plan to integrate with Microsoft Teams Rooms Premium as their engine for Teams management, while offering additional solutions and value.
