  • Meeting– Best for situations where participants need to interact with each other via voice, video, or chat and where multiple people may be presenting.
  • Webinar– Structured events where presenters and participants have clear roles. A key difference between webinars and Teams meetings is that webinars support robust registration management, a customizable event and registration site, and event-oriented default meeting options.
  • Town hall– Best for situations where a limited number of presenters are presenting to a large group of attendees and direct interaction via chat or voice conversation isn’t needed. For these event formats, attendees don’t use their cameras and mics, but instead use Q&A to engage with presenters and organizers.
