Microsoft won’t offer Teams video calls for free to these users anymore

The classic and free Microsoft Teams will no longer be available for users and small businesses as of April 12, 2023. The technology giant has announced to retire the older version of Teams and users will be required to start paying to maintain access to their chats and data.

The move comes after the recent introduction of a premium tier of Teams, which includes features like personalised highlights, customised meeting templates and auto-generated meeting notes. This new tier is powered by OpenAI technology and incorporates AI capabilities.
