Google Meet and Microsoft Teams just got better at working together

Your meeting room no longer has to pick a side.

Google Meet and Microsoft Teams just got better at working together

Google Meet and Microsoft Teams are now better equipped to work together, according to recent updates. The feature enables Google Meet hardware to join Microsoft Teams calls, while Android-based Microsoft Teams Rooms can seamlessly join Google Meet meetings. This functionality began rolling out on October 1 and is expected to reach eligible Google Workspace customers within 1-3 days.

The issue of joining a video call only to find the platform differs from the meeting room setup is a common pain point for many. Google addressed this problem last month with a preview of a new interoperability feature. This functionality allows Meet and Teams hardware to collaborate, eliminating the usual barriers between the two platforms.

For instance, if a company primarily uses Meet but a client sends a Teams invite, the user can join the call without needing a laptop or switching rooms, thanks to this new capability.
