When you have a Meeting Room license, this also includes a Phone System and Audio Conferencing license. I’ve documented how to set up the account here. However, the mailbox must have a password set on it with an Active Directory or Azure Active Directory account. Resource Mailboxes are free and do not require an Exchange license. The way Exchange should be set up for the MTR is that it should be a Resource Mailbox. If you are signing in with the free version of Microsoft Teams, remember there is no mailbox there. It will provide that Join button on the home screen so users can simply press Join to start their meeting. This is the final piece of the jigsaw to make an MTR work as it should.

The MTR can be used for both at the same time as I discussed here in a previous post. Why might you need this? Well if you are in a transition from Skype to Teams, you’ll probably need both accounts. This means the MTR will be able to sign in to the Skype for Business side of the MTR app. You need to assign the Client Access license for the MTR or assign it within the Office 365 portal. So if you have Skype for Business, you can be online, hybrid or on-premises. But you can do a Meet Now, invite the MTR, do a Point to Point call. However, when using this account, you cannot fall back to Skype for Business and you get an annoying banner like below, as there is no Teams only mode on the MTR. But can you sign into an MTR with a free Teams license account? Well, of course, you can. Microsoft Teams is also included with most plans when you are on a paid subscription. This is available for free, as there is free Microsoft Teams for users in organisations with less than 300 users. The Meeting Room license is $15/£11.30 and there is also a free trial available. The good news is that Microsoft Teams is always in the cloud. However many organisations different setups in terms of Skype for Business and Exchange. It is essentially an E5 license without the Office Apps. A regular question I get asked by people is what are the licensing requires for a Microsoft Teams Room (MTR) system? Microsoft has made it very simple, they have a Meeting Room license that includes all you need for an MTR.
