Two different forums for Microsoft 365 Insider?

Question

Can someone tell me the difference between https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-365-insider and https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/officeinsider? Why are there two forums for Microsoft 365 discussions? I keep getting pointed from one to the other and didn't realize they were two different forum until I couldn't find previous messages I sent. Which one is preferred for reporting problems with Microsoft 365?

Answer 1

Hi Six Sigma Guy,

Thanks for writing us here in Microsoft Community.

The Microsoft 365 Insider Tech Community forum (https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-365-insider) is a community-driven forum where users can discuss and share their experiences with Microsoft 365 Insider builds. This forum is primarily focused on discussing new features, updates, and issues related to Microsoft 365 Insider builds.

On the other hand, the Microsoft 365 Insider Answers forum (https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/officeinsider) is a Microsoft-run forum where users can ask questions and get answers related to Microsoft 365 Insider builds. This forum is primarily focused on providing technical support and troubleshooting assistance to users who are experiencing issues with Microsoft 365 Insider builds.

Both forums are useful for reporting problems with Microsoft 365 Insider builds. You can use either forum to report problems or ask questions related to Microsoft 365 Insider builds.

Hope this helps!
