Answer 1

Members Limits in a Team in Microsoft Team

The maximum number of members allowed in a single Microsoft Teams team is 25,000. This limit includes both owners and members of the team.

Considerations for large teams:

• Teams with a very high number of members may experience slower performance, particularly when managing team membership or interacting with files and conversations.
• Organize members into smaller, manageable channels within the team for focused collaboration.
• Utilize moderation tools to maintain effective communication in large teams.
• Ensure you have adequate permissions set up to manage the team effectively.

Microsoft regularly updates its limits, so it's good practice to check the latest documentation for any changes.
