Hi Gordon, any update on this? I would like to reiterate this is needed beyond the education clients. This should be enabled for everyone.

Hi Gordon, any updates on this? I am losing my CEO townhalls to Zoom as they allow up to 500 users in a meeting. Live Events is not what we want, as it is not as interactive, people cannot ask questions, and the video delay kills the flow.

Agree with the last comments. This is useful beyond the education realm. This is for everyone.
Any updates on this? It is hard to believe this would take days to decide when there is no net new software functionality and Teams is backed by the great O365 network and Azure servers :)

Hi Gordon, I am glad to see Microsoft is paying attention to these types of requests.
In reality, all your team at Microsoft needs to offer is feature parity to what the major players, like Zoom and WebEx, offer. Both offer 500 participants (Zoom) and 1000 participants (WebEx) max users in a meeting. This is normal meeting scenarios. This is necessary as no one has time to teach and create a formal production format using Teams Live Events, when we constantly have to communicate to large user bases during the COVID-19 cisis. Simply not a realistic answer or solution. If you can increase the Live Events capacity to 100,000 in a moments' notice, I don't see how you can't do the same for normal meetings from 250 to 1000 (or even 500).
In addition to meetings, both leading competitors also offer webinar functionalities, similar to Teams Live Events up to 10,000 participants, and still they come on top as they allow chat, Q&A, polls and surveys functionality, all built-in within their webinar solutions.
I really like Teams but as a meeting solution is sub-par.
Bottom line - bring all the meeting functionalities up to parity (or better) with ease of use, and well thought out UX, and you will come on top!
Thanks again for listening to your customers before we fully move to more robust meeting solutions.

Much needed to increase to 500 or even 1000 (I am sorry Microsoft, but Live Events is not the answer to 250+ attendees, as it requires re-learning, a production team to make it work, and is a delayed stream). Zoom and WebEx offer this + many more functionality like polling, Q&A, gallery view, etc. My users are using other platforms as Teams meetings is not cutting it as it lacks depth.

We are currently rolling out the increase for the Teams meeting limit. The new permanent meeting limit is 300 participants (in the meeting call and the chat). We expect this to be enabled by the end of June for the public cloud, with government clouds to follow.

With Zoom and WebEx offering large meeting add-ons and the fact we now currently live in a COVID-19 - Work from Home world, we need this more than ever!

Thank you for your continued feedback. The feature team is actively working on this highly requested feature. We are testing the first release that will have the ability for meeting hosts to create breakout rooms, assign the users to the rooms and call them back to the main room. Please see our roadmap for current status here: https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=Microsoft%20Teams&searchterms=65332.

As the last status states, we have been testing for several months. Although many people have asked for this feature, we received a similar amount of feedback from other users that they prefer the Teams notifications and don’t want them changed. We are currently testing a feature for users to choose between Teams notifications & Windows notifications.
We will update you as work progresses.

The team has updated the default sound for Teams notifications so it is more noticeable. We are in final testing, with a goal to release the new sound by the end of this quarter.

The engineering team is continuing to work on adding support for multiple accounts on desktop clients. We will first launch support for 1 work/school account and 1 personal account so users can enjoy Teams for work and personal side-by-side. Windows and MacOS. Support for multiple work accounts is still being worked on and will come at a later date.
You can track status via the roadmap here: https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/roadmap?searchterms=68845.
Thanks!

Yet another item that is completely overlooked. We just moved from Skype to Teams and having this missing DOES NOT instill confidence in our users. Definitely, product managers need to do a better job at looking at all small and trivial, yet super important items that users rely on.

I just checked this and as long as the user has the user notification setting set to "Mute until I join or send a message", under the general Teams settings area, it will not get notification regardless if the invitee accepted or decline the meeting.
My organization found this annoying, but seems they addressed this on a release back in December. Not sure why this keeps happening to others.

Great news Gordon! I saw this post on the increase to 1000 participants but no dates. Do you have an estimate when that will be GA? Thank you
