Microsoft Teams Phone
Microsoft Teams Phone (formerly Microsoft 365 Business Voice) has had office managers everywhere breathing a sigh of relief since its introduction in 2020. As a cloud-based VoIP business phone system that integrates with Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Teams Phone makes it possible to enjoy enterprise-quality phone system features without needing to purchase and maintain a physical PBX (Private Branch Exchange.)
Microsoft Teams has become a critical application in use by many organizations during this pandemic, work-from-home era. That being the case, transitioning your phone system to Teams may not be much of a leap. Now you can combine calling, chatting and virtual meetings into a single application, using each person’s preferred devices.
Microsoft Teams Phone comes fully loaded with all your favourite commercial phone system features such as auto-attendant, extension dialing, conferencing and more. The difference is that unlike your average PBX, this VoIP phone service is fully scalable as your workforce and customer base grows.
Whether you have salespeople on the road or work-from-home staff members, it’s simple to stay in touch and stay organized. Microsoft Teams Phone is the next generation in communications for small and medium size businesses.
