Anonymous Teams Meetings, Live Transcriptions, and More Great Features from Microsoft Teams


Anonymous Teams Meetings

Over the past three years, Microsoft Teams meetings have become a staple of work life. But if you haven’t looked under the hood lately, you may be missing out on some of the fantastic capabilities Microsoft has added.

A NYC area Microsoft 365 expert explains how to conduct anonymous Microsoft Teams meetings in a new article on the eMazzanti Technologies website. The informative article first encourages readers to investigate some of the terrific capabilities Microsoft has recently added to Teams.

The author then explains how Teams meeting organizers can ensure that personal information for attendees remains private. She then relates that Teams now enables attendees to view a Transcript sidebar that shows all the dialogue in a meeting, along with speaker attribution.

Teams meeting participants who arrived late or had to step away can scroll through the transcription and catch up. She concludes by briefly discussing Virtual Whiteboards, spotlighting meeting attendees, and creating Breakout Sessions.

“Over the past three years, Microsoft Teams meetings have become a staple of work life,” stated Jennifer Mazzanti, CEO, eMazzanti Technologies. “But if you haven’t looked under the hood lately, you may be missing out on some of the fantastic capabilities Microsoft has added.”

Below are a few excerpts from the article, “Anonymous Teams Meetings, Live Transcriptions, and More Great Features from Microsoft Teams.”

Protect Identities with Anonymous Teams Meetings

“Occasionally, meeting organizers need to ensure that personal information for attendees remains private. Microsoft Teams provides two ways to make a meeting anonymous. With the first option, the meeting organizer sends a Teams meeting link through email.”

Keep Everyone Up to Speed with Live Transcription

“For a while now, Microsoft Teams has included the ability to generate text transcripts after the fact for recorded meetings. The Live Transcription feature proves especially helpful for attendees who struggle with hearing the meeting. Likewise, participants who arrived late or had to step away can scroll through the transcription and catch up.”

Drive Collaboration with Virtual Whiteboards

“While Teams has offered virtual whiteboards for quite some time, Microsoft added a host of new features to the Whiteboard app last year. To begin with, over 40 new templates help groups brainstorm, plan projects, solve problems and more.”

Create Space for Breakout Sessions

“Before or during a meeting, a meeting organizer or presenter creates one or more breakout rooms by clicking the Breakout Rooms icon (a small square on top of a larger square). They can either assign people to a breakout room manually or allow the system to make the assignments automatically.”

Harness the Power of Microsoft Teams

Anonymous Teams Meetings, Live Transcriptions, Whiteboard Improvements, Attendee Spotlighting, and Breakout Sessions illustrate the versatility and continuing evolution of Microsoft Teams.
