By: Peter Rising, Nate Chamberlain

Overview of this book

Do you want to build and test your proficiency in the deployment, management, and monitoring of Microsoft Teams features within the Microsoft 365 platform? Managing Microsoft Teams: MS-700 Exam Guide will help you to effectively plan and implement Microsoft Teams using the Microsoft 365 Teams admin center and Windows PowerShell. You’ll also discover best practices for rolling out and managing MS services for Teams users within your Microsoft 365 tenant. The chapters are divided into three easy-to-follow parts: planning and design, feature policies and administration, and team management, while aligning with the official MS-700 exam objectives to help you prepare effectively for the exam. The book starts by taking you through planning and design, where you’ll learn how to plan migrations, make assessments for network readiness, and plan and implement governance tasks such as configuring guest access and monitoring usage. Later, you’ll understand feature administration, focusing on collaboration, meetings, live events, phone numbers, and the phone system, along with applicable policy configurations. Finally, the book shows you how to manage Teams and membership settings and create app policies. By the end of this book, you'll have learned everything you need to pass the MS-700 certification exam and have a handy reference guide for MS Teams.

To get the most out of this book

In order to get the most out of this book, it is highly recommended to create a test Microsoft 365 environment where you can follow along and recreate the steps that are covered in each chapter.

You may sign up for an Office 365 E3 trial at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/enterprise/office-365-e3?activetab=pivot%3aoverviewtab – other trial options are available but the E3 suite is the most commonly used Office 365 subscription and will provide all that you need to test Microsoft Teams effectively.

The preceding trial subscription will allow you to recreate the steps covered in the chapters of this book.

This book also has some example PowerShell commands that can be used instead of the Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 admin centers. Therefore, it is suggested to have a Windows 10 device available where you can run PowerShell and practice some of the commands included in the chapters.

A Windows 10 device will also be useful for the purposes of installing and using the Microsoft Teams desktop client, the Microsoft Teams web version, and many more of the features described in the book.

A mobile device such as an iOS or Android device will also be useful for testing Microsoft Teams from a mobile user's perspective.
