Hello, it's matt from collaboration coach
You may have heard that recently Microsoft held its ignite conference and at that conference
There was a number of really exciting announcements for Microsoft teams
so in this video, I thought I'd round up the best of the announcements and
Let you know what's new in Microsoft teams
I've chosen eight new features to talk about I'm going to talk you through
Why I think they're cool and why you would use them and at the end of the video, I'll let you know when they're available
This was just my pick there are loads more
so I'll put a link in the description so you can check out the rest and
If you like videos on Microsoft teams and office 365 in general then why don't you check out my youtube channel?
Collaboration coach where we're posting videos like that every week
My first pick is private channels
If you use teams, you're probably aware that if you're an owner or a member of a team
You basically have access to everything all teams are split up into channels
So you'll have access to all the channels and what customers have been asking for a long time is to have private channels
So you can have a private space within your team and private channels are now available in Microsoft teams
You can create a private channel just like you would a normal one and you can add the special permissions to it
And then it's only visible to those people that you've given the permissions to
My next pick is multi-window
Believe it or not in teams today
You have to do all your work within one window and you click around between your channels and teams
But it's always in one window. So what's coming is
support for
multiple windows at the same time
if you wanted to have a chat and pop that chat out as another window you could do that and allow yourself to switch between
the existing windows in the chat
Same for meetings and channels and so on so multi window support will make your life a lot easier and using the team's app
My third pick is the messaging extensions
Often within a team meeting or just in general conversation you want to ask people questions and get their feedback
So Microsoft are going to add what they call messaging extensions to Microsoft teams
So when you're in a chat window
You'll be able to start a poll or a survey to ask people questions
And get responses and feedback and you'll be able to do this in the chat window and also in meetings so you'll get real-time feedback
During the meeting
Hennig has become pretty popular across all of office 365
so you probably notice that you can pin documents in Word Excel and PowerPoint and
Microsoft is adding the idea of pinning to teams
So you'll be able to pin the team's that you care about and that you want to access quickly within the team's app
Just a Productivity saver. So you don't have to go clicking around trying to find the team that you want access to
Microsoft also showed off some cool outlook integration with teams. So they're adding a share to team's button
So if you receive an email message and you want to share it with your team
Then you just hit the share team's button choose the team you want to share with and then it's done
Another integration with Outlook is the ability to reply to messages
within Outlook
So when you receive a team's email saying that someone's mentioned you or someone's made a comment
You can actually reply to that team's conversation within Outlook
So you'll be able to type with an email hit the reply button and it will send your reply to teams
Next is a feature that I know a lot of my customers are interested in and that's tasks in teams
So now you'll be able to access your to do
outlook planner and teams tasks all from one window within the team's app
You'll be able to choose the view that works for you like lists boards charts and schedules
Pick number seven is Microsoft whiteboard integration. So this is dear to my heart. I'm a big fan of whiteboard
I've done a few review videos over on my channel and
Microsoft whiteboard integration with teams means that during your meeting you can fire up the whiteboard and you can make notes and
You can invite people to the whiteboard after the meeting as well
So you'll keep the whiteboard forever so you can always refer back to it if you need to
And my last pick is live captions
So this means that as people are speaking in teams meetings
It will caption their words in real time
So if you want to follow along by reading in a particular language, you can do that
So they're my eight picks of what's new in Microsoft teams and just before we go let's run through when they're available
Private channels are available now
Multi window support will be coming in early 2020
Messaging extensions are coming at the end of 2019
pin channels - at the end of this year
outlook integration early 2020 alongside tasks in teams
Whiteboard support is now available and live captions. Should be here by the end of 2019
So that's it from me. Thank you so much for listening
It's always a pleasure to talk to you the key productive community
