- Apply advanced meeting protection such as watermarking, end-to-end encryption for meetings, and sensitivity protection for meetings by preventing copy/paste of conversations.
- Deliver a high-quality webinar experience through advanced features to streamline workflow, with and without a registration waitlist automatic approval, facilitating behind-the-scenes actions through a virtual green room for presenters (separate from attendees) prior to the start of the event, and managing the attendee experience.
- Manage your end-to-end virtual appointment experience with advanced features like text reminders, custom branded virtual meetings, and a central virtual appointment dashboard for quick viewing of timelinesletterlists and analytics to track key usage information such as wait time per appointment.
If all goes as planned, Microsoft Teams Premium will be available in February 2023 and will cost $10 per user per month.
