Microsoft Teams: Enhanced bookable desk experience with Teams panel-based desk dock devices
Microsoft Teams will support panel-based desk dock devices that display desk availability and enable direct booking from the device. Organizations using flexible workspaces will need to provision compatible hardware and licensing to enable this feature.
Action required: Procure Teams panel-based desk dock devices (e.g., Yealink Linkhub) and assign Teams Shared Space licenses to each device for bookable desk functionality.
