✅ 50+ Professionally Designed OOB Templates: A growing Microsoft library covering HR, status updates, event announcements, team intros, product news — stop reinventing for common scenarios.
✅ Custom Templates Front and Center: Your site-specific templates show prominently at the top of the gallery. Brand consistency without the search hunt.
✅ Pages vs News Posts, Separated: Tailored template options for each use case — right template, right job, automatically.

⚠️ One gotcha: Updates to a template do NOT retroactively change pages already created from it — protects customizations, but brand refreshes require re-touching existing pages.
