Price and SKUs

Teams Rooms Pro is priced per room, per month, with an annual commitment typical. Microsoft also lists Pro for education, nonprofit and government (GCC, GCC High, DoD) customers, where pricing differs. Some resellers list a "Teams Rooms Pro without Audio Conferencing" SKU for regions or contracts where dial-in conferencing is licensed separately. Because pricing and SKU names change and vary by region and agreement, check:

  • The Microsoft 365 admin center Marketplace
  • Your Microsoft reseller (CSP)
  • Your Enterprise Agreement

See Teams Rooms license cost for how to budget, and Teams Rooms trial licenses if you want to test Pro first.

Requirements

The resource account doesn't need a separate Exchange or Teams license; the room license covers it.

How to set up and assign Pro

  1. Buy the licenses in the Microsoft 365 admin center or through your reseller.
  2. Create the room resource account with a mailbox and password.
  3. Assign the license: in the Microsoft 365 admin center, open Users > Active users, select the resource account, open Licenses and apps, check Microsoft Teams Rooms Pro and save.
  4. Sign in the device with the resource account.
  5. Enroll in Pro Management: in the Teams Rooms Pro Management portal, rooms with Pro licenses appear for monitoring once the device is enrolled. See Teams Rooms Pro Management portal.
  6. Optional: enroll Windows devices in Intune with Autopilot (Intune and Autopilot).
