Microsoft Message
We’re expanding analytics in the Microsoft Teams Pro Management portal to include utilization insights for bookable desks. IT admins will be able to better understand how desk spaces are being used across their organization, with insights into desk utilization, reservations, occupancy, and peak usage patterns. Desk-specific filters, including location and desk mode, will help admins analyze usage across their workplace and make more informed space planning decisions.
For utilization analytics to be enabled, a desk needs to have one or more peripheral device associated, and the desk needs to be licensed with Microsoft Teams Shared Space license or Microsoft Teams Shared Space – Single Space license.
