Teams Direct Routing
Designed for MSPs
Partners know the Microsoft suite better than we ever will. We stay out of the tenancy, so partners can add value and ensure security isn’t compromised.
We provide the Session Border Controllers (SBCs) that integrate our VoIP platform with Microsoft Teams.
The service provider adds value to clients through the design, implementation, training and ongoing support, and grow recurring revenue with SIP Trunk plans and Microsoft licensing.
Disclaimer:
it's Not a fit for all clients
Even the most tech-adverse people can easily use the telephony functionality within Microsoft Teams.
However, if your client has requirements such as call recording, complex call flows or call centre functionality, then Teams Calling isn’t a good fit.
Listen to this podcast episode to learn if the Teams phone system will suit your clients.
Flexible & Scalable
Teams Calling without the expensive per user model
No one is on the phone all the time, so why pay for a dedicated phone line?
Share phone lines between all users and cut down the number of dedicated phone lines by 75%*
When clients save on the calling component, they can spend more on your MSP services 😉
*we suggest a contention ratio of 1 line per 4 users
