What is the best way to create an employee directory? #M365AMA
In this episode, the #M365AMA panel discusses the following community question:
“There should be a “telephone list” of employees. Previously, these were available as public folders. The problem is that the contacts on the mobile devices were missing and that the users couldn’t even find the public folder. What other options are there for making such a list available?”

- There’s a great discussion out on Tech Community on this topic, which repeats what we covered: you can either build or buy, with nothing out of the box, unfortunately [https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/sharepoint/employee-directory/m-p/379781]
