    With the limit to the number of channels in a team, this would be important to archive channels no longer needed. Especially with the limit of 30 private channels. Once the channel has run its course it would be great to preserve chat and files in an Archive Team

    Hi Ali,

    It is pretty good

    The Good

    • Copies channel from one team to an other
    • Merge channel in a same team
    • Merge channel in other team

    The Bad

    • If there are special character in the title of the TEAMS or Private Channel it might fail
    • Support is Ok, but a little slow to respond to investigations
    • Will not copy Wiki's

    The Ugly

    • When you Move a Team the source does not get deleted, has to be done via the Office/Teams admin portal
    • Teams delete does not delete Sharepoint source site need to be manually delete, check to make sure Data Governance will not hinder delete

    Voila, we did renew for an other 12 months, hope it helps

    We also need this - I can't imagine anyone using Teams wouldn't need this!!  

    I agree. Can someone give a status of this?

    This is a simple ability that every admin should have.  it is unbelievable that we need third parts system to be able to do that simple thing. Please MS Teams developers, take this into consideration.

    Yes, please make it possible to move channels between Teams. As things evolve we need to move channels to other teams, but don't want to waste time recreating old content.
