Guest registration for live events
We have trouble introducing the live events feature if not every attendee is known. A solution would be, that additionally to the live event option "organization wide (registration required)" potential external viewer could register for the event, similar to the "Guest" registration for a team. So we can invite internal and external users and ensure that every viewer is known with name and email.

Clearly there is a (completely obvious) need for identifying online event attendees with their unique email address at sign in when they join the webinar... Microsoft: when is your timescale to deliver this vital feature? Its a showstopper, without it. You are losing a lot of business to Zoom ... and these lost customers may never come back. (so hurry up)

Like all of the others here, not having a registration page in Teams is a HUGE headache! Please address this issue for the sake of my organization and the 84 below.

Registration is a no brainer. There's a lot of useful data in a registration. Our Org is now using to Zoom for these external webinars.

Same here - forced to use Zoom if we can't get a webinar registration and tracking capability.
If you really need to see votes to justify this, your product marketing team is completely useless ... fire them and hire more developers to get this done. -

REGISTRATION for outside users a deal breaker for our Org. What is the rationale behind not having it? Forced to use Zoom without it.

@Teams you surely DO NOT need votes and comments to agree that this feature is pertinent and utile. We use Teams for internal meetings but cannot use it for external webinars because of the absence of this feature. We have had to spend more to get an alternative.

a unique url link per user would be part of it, I hope, otherwise the link generated on user X's registration could be shared on social media for example, and then registration was really not helpful.
We definitely CANNOT use Teams without this functionality for our live events.

The registration feature is a must. It just makes the whole experience so much more professional. If Zoom can create such professional looking registration links, it should be so easy to implement for MS

Registration is a much requested feature of my users. They say it's a must for getting data on who has attended, and also want to be sure registration is secure e.g. an individual URL per attendee, so this can't be shared about to others.

Definitely looking for this feature - especially for external events.

This is a priority for us. It's been really an issue for us moving into Teams for our webinars as we don't have the ability to manage external guests, as we used to have in GoTo Webinar. We are discussing the likelihood of having a goto webinar license because of this.

This is the number one complaint we get from users - it's too hard to join a Teams Live Event if you are not an internal user. It needs to be click link - enter User name and Email - small option to login if you are a teams user - don't push downloading the client. The fact that a Teams client is not required is a great selling point - except that it is overshadowed by the huge problems getting logged in.

We have had to resort to using another product (rhymes with gloom) for our webinars due to this limitation. Marketing department needs contact information of those who attend webinars. We would much prefer to use Teams Live Events, but can't due to the lack of this capability.

We need the registration process for our Webinars and online events. There has never been more need for this functionality than now.

One of the reasons why Zoom is being used is because LIVE Events doesn't have the ability to create a registration page. We need this. I'm voting for Teams Meeting registration page as well.

Guest registration for Teams live event (and Stream playback) would be an extremely valuable sales tool. Without it, companies will use other products like Zoom, GoToWebinar etc...

We absolutely need the ability to have registration for Teams Live Events as well as a way for registered attendees to confirm attendance when they are logging in to the Live Event.
Zoom and GoToWebinar both have this along with robust reporting on attendees. We are holding customer meetings through this tool and need to have registration.
Thank you.

This feature is a MUST HAVE. My team delivers online training sessions/webinars across health and social care and we need to know how many people/who will be attending each of the sessions. We then send follow up emails with the recording and other useful links. With webex you are able to send a registration link but also the minute people register, they automatically receive a calendar invite. This is super useful. Not having this option available on Teams really complicates our work and it should be a standard feature. We had to find a way around it which is not great and adds to our workload. I think Teams are good for internal working but if you think about using it for webinars , it really should include options available on Webex.
