Teams operate in an off-line environment

Question

I have a standalone network that is not connected to the internet. Can Teams be deployed on the systems in a way that they can collaborate on document editing using Teams, without being online? Or are all of the functions of Teams tied into the use of the internet?

Answer 1

Hi @UtauyoNASE

Teams requires an internet connection for document collaboration. Teams functionality is tied to the use of internet.

The only thing that works is:

The new offline mode feature in Microsoft Teams lets users browse their recent chats and channels as well as those they’ve pinned without having to connect to the internet.
