Ty for alll the learning videos, the value these hold is awesome. 🎉🎉

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

So much I appreciate that 👍 😊

[@RomanTheUTubeWatcher]

Love it, Andy ❣️ What is the absolute minimum license subscription required to have Planner task dependancies for a creator (project manager)? Also What is the absolute minimum license subscription required to see those task dependancies for a team member (just to view OR contribute)?

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

You can compare the license plans yourself by using M365maps.com

💻⌨Thank you Andy

[@k-l.l6281]

Thanks for all the videos and content you put out! Was wondering if you could clearify: Am I wrong for getting the impression that "Authentication flows" (16:44) enables kind of a similar authentication method as Apple is doing with their devices, such as confirming login with an iPad when trying to login to a MacBook?

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

It certainly looks that way, however I wouldn’t like to say as this is in an early stage of the beta. Let’s see what happens 😊

[@k-l.l6281]

@@AndyMaloneMVP Thanks a lot for your reply, and thank you again for your content!

The new Outlook is a big step backwards, i tried it in desktop preview and quickly changed back.

[@SAAConsulting]

Absolutely agree! Nothing but a dumbing down of a tool with an interface and features that have been in use for decades. To what AND WHOSE advantage? Let those people use gmail where you have to use a drop-down to forward a message. Then I noticed Andy was using demoing on a Mac! I guess having a Cmd key is so much better than using Ctrl that it is worth dealing with lack of separate BS and Del keys and no hope of ever having a touch interface. Have appreciated Andy's content and presentation for some time -- so apologies for the pre-caffeine rant.

[@bigbmessiah]

The new Outlook is so horrible...from a person that lives within Outlook, its a very large step backwards. If anything they should have made the web client more like the desktop app.

[@ChristopherNealBUSHIDO49ERS]

Agreed! I'm not a fan of the new app. Bland and restrictive is putting it nicely.

[@Eddie_-_]

As a person who switched from Mac I can’t stand the ugliness in the old outlook. It’s hideous. I love the new Outlook and the snooze function that comes along with it

[@NDSLAB]

Andy, can you do Hybrid Domain Join to Cloud Only journey video? This is a huge problem nowadays.

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

From hybrid to cloud. Hmmm I do t have a demo lab environment. But I’ll add it too my list and see what I can do ok👍😊

[@alcomatt]

That new outlook is a massive downgrade though...

[@harrylumsdon6773]

Looks like july 5th???

[@exmuslim1330]

what is exchange recipient admin center, is it replacement to exchange admin center

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

I think you’re a little mixed up here. The exchange recipient admin is not an admin centre but an admin role with the following permissions. Exchange Recipient Admin - Users with this role have read access to recipients and write access to the attributes of those recipients in Exchange Online.

[@driver288]

What’s the cost for power pages? I have a hard time finding info for it

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

I’ll be honest a lot of sales, I don’t know. I would check out office.com

[@ChristopherNealBUSHIDO49ERS]

First, great video! Thank you! I have to say I'm not a fan of the new Outlook app. The preview doesn't have any support for Add-on items like CRM and there is no PST support. This is a major issue for my users. I understand it's currently in preview but these are my thoughts.

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

Awesome feedback Christopher thanks so much. Definitely feed this back via the app to the product group 👍

[@ChristopherNealBUSHIDO49ERS]

@@AndyMaloneMVP Thanks so much for doing that, Andy. Microsoft is making a HUGE mistake if this is the "final" version.

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

Thanks, Christopher. It’s a fact of life that everything changes. Personally, I honestly believe the outlook won’t be here in another three or four years. I think everything will be merged into teams as it’s becoming an ecosystem in its own right. This is my thoughts, not official Microsoft News. It’s just a gut feeling I have 😉

[@denwo1982]

What’s the difference between planner and azure devops

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

Honestly, I’ve not used azure DevOps as I’m not a developer. However I have used planner which is an excellent team planning tool in which you can assign plans to individuals and teams. It fully integrates with Microsoft project and Microsoft teams. It comes part of the Microsoft 365 suite.

[@jstump1972]

How does a 365 admin see what powerpage sites people are creating with copiilot?

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

No idea I’m sorry. Try reaching out to the Microsoft Tech Community

[@scifibob]

You lost me on appraising "the new outlook", one of the worst things Microsoft has ever done to their M365 e-mail app. Our organization are having problems with this crazy thing, especially the fact that it's online only. Who in their right mind at Microsoft would ever think that business clients would think this is reasonable?

Meanwhile Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates is enjoying his meal in some Ambanis son's Marriage festival here in India

[@allenwelden7099]

Satya Nadella is the Chairman of Microsoft. Gates isn’t even on the board of directors…..
