            Microsoft Teams Premium offers a wide array of features designed to enhance your team’s collaboration, communication, and productivity. But with so many options available, it can be challenging to know where to start. This article provides four key tips to help you unlock the full potential of Teams Premium.

            1. Leverage Custom Meeting Features

            One of the standout features of Teams Premium is the ability to customize meetings. From meeting themes and templates to custom backgrounds and together mode scenes, these features can significantly enhance your meeting experience.

            Meeting templates can help standardize and streamline the meeting setup process, ensuring consistency across all meetings and reducing the need for manual configuration.

            Custom backgrounds and together mode scenes can make virtual meetings more interesting and engaging, reducing video fatigue and helping attendees focus more on the content of the meeting.

            Pro Tip: Use the Real Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP)-In feature to produce high-quality video streams directly from an external encoder, enhancing the production value of your meetings and webinars.

            2. Enhance Security with Protected Meetings

            Teams Premium offers advanced security features such as sensitivity labels, watermarks, and end-to-end encryption. Using these features can provide an extra layer of security to your meetings, preventing unauthorized access and information leakage.

            It’s also possible to manage what attendees see and to hide attendee names, giving you more control over the visibility of your meetings and offering a safer and more focused meeting environment.

            Pro Tip: Regularly review and update your sensitivity labels to ensure they reflect the current security requirements of your organization.

            3. Get the Most Out of Premium Events

            The Premium Events feature in Teams Premium provides a host of capabilities for hosting large-scale meetings or events. From custom email reminders to increased broadcast capacity and multilingual live translations, these features can significantly enhance the user experience.

            Real-time monitoring and insights can help you troubleshoot issues during an event, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience for attendees.

            Pro Tip: Use custom email reminders to provide attendees with essential information about the event and increase attendance rates.

            4. Utilize Webinar Tools Effectively

            Teams Premium offers a range of tools to make your webinars more engaging and well-organized. From the ability to manually approve registrants and manage a waitlist to limiting registration start and end times, these features can help you control attendee numbers and manage overflow effectively.

            Pro Tip: Use the RTMP-In feature for webinars as well, to produce high-quality live video streams that can make your webinars more professional and engaging.

            5. Maximize Collaboration with Shared Channels

            Shared channels are an excellent feature in Microsoft Teams Premium that allows for seamless collaboration with people outside your organization. Whether they’re partners, vendors, or customers, shared channels let you collaborate as if you were in the same team, while maintaining the necessary privacy and security boundaries.

            With shared channels, you can chat, meet, collaborate on files, and even use apps together. This enhanced collaboration can help improve project coordination, streamline workflows, and foster better relationships with external collaborators.

            Pro Tip: Ensure to set the appropriate permissions and access levels for each shared channel to maintain control over the information that’s shared and to safeguard your organization’s data.
