Dear community,
As you might notice from the subject, I have a question about upgrading Microsoft Teams free to a Microsoft 365 Business premium license.
Currently, the Microsoft Teams free license is in use and we're investigating options to migrate to Microsoft Business Premium without losing used channels and data. Before upgrading, I've one question Microsoft can't give a clear answer to. Neither can I find the answers within the Microsoft documentation: Is it safe to assign the Microsoft 365 Premium license to this tenant so we can configure AD-connect, Hybrid Exchange, and Intune WITHOUT disabling the 'Microsoft Teams free' version?
Now, the organization is going to work with Microsoft 365 Business premium. According to Microsofts documentation "All users must be upgraded: a mix of Teams Free (classic) and paid subscription users in the same tenant isn't supported.".
As we prefer created (external) users to work with Microsoft Teams free (until the end of support in April 2023) until all the hybrid setup has been tested by a handful of users synced from the on-premises environment.
