Teams Calling Workshop – Teams & First Line

The scope of this engagement is to perform a detailed analysis of your current environment, including user personas, devices, and calling workloads. The objective is to jointly create a customized, prioritized, and actionable upgrade plan to move users to Microsoft Teams for calling.

This course is ideal if you have ever thought about:

• Using Teams as a VoIP telephony system
• Replacing a PBX system (ideally, this platform should be reviewed every 5 years)
• Replacing legacy desktop phones
• Reducing the cost of traditional calling plans

This workshop is perfect for customers who use Teams for just chat, collaboration, and meetings with audio conferencing, who want to leverage their existing investment with calling within Teams.
