Teem Outlook Add-in Install Methods
The Teem Outlook Add-in lives within your Outlook calendar so that the experience is simple and easy to use for those who are scheduling meetings and want to find a workspace, conference room, space, that works for their meeting. Book spaces based on location, availability, capacity, amenities, and more. This article will guide you through installing and using the add-in. Let’s start with what you’ll need to have set in place first.
Prerequisites
The Teem Outlook Add-in requires each user to have a user account on Teem.com. We recommend using Office 365 SSO or ADFS to provision users.
- Office 365, Exchange 2007 or later
- Outlook for PC (2007 or later), Outlook for Mac (15.35 or later), or Outlook.office365.com
- Admin access in Exchange/Office 365
- We also recommend adding the following to your spaces to get the most out of the add-in:
After you’ve checked everything off the list, you’re ready to decide how you want to install the Teem Outlook Add-in.
Installation Methods
There are three different ways to install the Outlook Add-in:
-

Companies are encouraged to upgrade to the Organization Install method.

Which should I use?
Teem only supports the Organization Install method for the Outlook Web Add In. Feature work and bug fixes will only be supported on this Teem Add In. Use the following table or flow chart to determine which install method best meets your needs.
- How does this impact delegate users? Customers with delegate scenarios can use the ClickOnce or Windows Install method as needed. However, no new feature work or maintenance will be available. Microsoft has made some changes that now allow us to include delegate users in the Web Add In. This feature will be scoped and prioritized for development.
- How can I select which user groups have access to the Teem Add In when doing an Org Install? Given recent changes to Microsoft's Organization Install configurations, admins can now manage which users or groups have the Add In Installed. See this documentation for more information.
