When you need to establish HOME Office workplaces quickly and easily, a Microsoft Teams Only setup is an option. Of course, a planned and coordinated rollout of Office 365 overall, including an adoption and training concept, is the preferred approach. Nevertheless, sometimes it simply has to go fast and then a pragmatic solution is required.
Overview
If the focus is a solution for virtual meetings and collaboration, the planning approach is primarily about not encouraging uncontrolled sprawl in the involved backend systems SharePoint, Exchange and Azure AD. The Microsoft Team service is based on these services and therefore cannot work without them. This is also reflected in the fact that by assigning a Microsoft Teams license, access to SharePoint is also technically included.Minimum technical requirements
Azure
Active Directory Account / synchronized identities to Azure Active Directory
Exchange
Online / Exchange Hybrid: Details: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/exchange-teams-interact
The SMTP
matching to match on-premises user accounts to Office 365 user accounts option
can be used to merge mailboxes at a later date. This is relevant when users and
mailboxes need to be created in Exchange Online in parallel with existing
mailboxes in Exchange Server on-premises, for example because Exchange Hybrid
cannot be implemented in a short term.
SharePoint

The following is not a general recommendation. The described actions make sense if the goal is to use Microsoft Teams only as an ad hoc solution for online meetings etc. and not to use any other Office 365 service for now.
- Restriction that users cannot create additional SharePoint Site Collections.
- Further options for restrictions in SharePoint Online & OneDrive:
- Restrict content from being shared anonymously.
- Conditional Acceess Policy that only allow access to SharePoint. This prevents services such as PowerApps and Power Automate being used in SharePoint.
Licenses /
Apps:
The
bracketed apps in the following list are not mandatory to work with Microsoft
Teams as such. However, the Teams App license as such must be assigned to a
user so that the basic Teams functions are available and the client can be
used:
Microsoft
Teams, (SharePoint & OneDrive), (Exchange Online), (Office for the web),
(Microsoft Planner), (Microsoft Stream), (Whiteboard).
He can
still chat with other users.

Tips
To keep track of Teams usage and keep users themselves engaged, Microsoft is already providing some Azure features:
- Azure AD Access Reviews, showing which Teams are in active use: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/governance/access-reviews-overview
- Azure AD Expiration Policy, which requires Teams Owners / Members to periodically confirm that a Team is still needed: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/enterprise-users/groups-lifecycle
