Skype for Business with Teams Collaboration* Skype for Business with Teams Collaboration and Meetings* They will continue to have the option to add Skype for Business meetings in Outlook mobile. Similarly, if a user’s coexistence mode is “Skype for Business Only”, “Skype for Business with Teams collaboration”, or “Islands”, then nothing changes. For example, regardless of the tenant level setting, if a user’s coexistence mode is “Teams Only” or “Skype for Business with Teams Collaboration and Meetings”, then Outlook mobile will schedule Teams meetings instead of Skype for Business when creating Outlook mobile events. The user level setting, if present, will take precedence over the tenant level setting. The experience in Outlook mobile will be based on this coexistence mode setting at the tenant and the user level. Many companies are using Teams in some shape or form, but are not ready for all Outlook mobile scheduled meetings to be Teams meetings.įortunately, Microsoft heard the feedback and have updated their plan Outlook mobile will schedule either Teams or Skype for Business meetings depending on your coexistence mode This made no sense, the plan was that if you had Teams enabled at an organisational level, Outlook mobile would schedule Teams meetings, even if that user was a Skype for Business user.

If some of the people in your organization still need to create Skype meetings, they can continue to do so from Outlook for Windows, Outlook for Mac and Outlook on the web.” “If your organization is enabled for both Skype for Business and Teams, the option to create Teams meetings will replace the option to create Skype meetings for your users in Outlook mobile. That sounds great, but the announcement was slightly odd: Every Outlook mobile scheduled meeting will be a Teams meeting? Last week (21st Feb 2019) Microsoft announced that the Outlook mobile app will support creating and joining native Teams meetings.
