<p>With the general release of Teams Premium scheduled for February 2023, the Redmond giant will move some of its free features to the Premium add-on. Users that would like to continue using these features will have to pay an extra for the Teams Premium license.</p>
<p>According to Microsoft, the following features will be moved to the Premium add-on:</p>
<ul>
<li><i>Virtual Appointments: SMS notifications</i></li>
<li><i>Virtual Appointments: Organizational analytics in the Teams admin center</i></li>
<li><i>Virtual Appointments: Scheduled queue view</i></li>
<li><i>Custom organization Together mode scenes</i></li>
<li><i>Live translated captions</i></li>
<li><i>Timeline markers in Teams meeting recordings for when a user left or joined meetings.</i></li>
</ul>
<p>As a courtesy, Microsoft will allow the usage of these features for additional 30 days. After that serious tenants will have the option to pay for the Teams Premium add-on.</p>
