- [Instructor] Groups are a recent feature…to the Office 365 suite.…You are most likely already familiar…with distribution lists.…Distribution groups include email addresses only.…Groups take it a step further.…In addition to the email addresses, a group also includes…a calendar, OneDrive for Business, and OneNote.…As with most services in Office 365, there are limitations.…The group limitations include a maximum of 10 owners…per group.…Your users can only create up to 250 groups,…and if you have groups with over a thousand members,…you may start to encounter performance issues.…
Creating groups in Office 365 is incredibly easy.…First as the administrator, log into the Admin center…and then select Groups and then Groups again.…You will notice in my screen I already have three groups.…I'm going to go ahead and create a new one.…Click on Add a group.…We're going to create an Office 365 group…and we're going to give it a name.…I'm going to use the same name for the Group ID.…One thing I want to point out here is the privacy setting.…
