What's more, this capability expands to Teams mobile devices, laptop PC, or one of many IP phones that work with Teams. Administrators can manage Phone System options and settings from the same console used for messaging and collaboration.

That's where Microsoft Teams phone system and Voxtelesys Direct Routing option for small and medium-sized businesses shine. Microsoft Teams has grown dramatically in popularity due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Workers are encouraged or required to stay home all while still being productive. Although, executives are starting to require employees to return to the office. Remote working as an option for employers and employees will continue to be popular.
IT managers that scrambled to find communication and collaboration alternatives at the start of the pandemic are now rethinking their entire IT infrastructure. Remote and hybrid work environments are just part of the ethos. Microsoft Teams has filled an important role, effectively providing a platform for companies to connect virtually when in-person collaboration is not an option. But companies are discovering it's just not enough.
As valuable as Microsoft Teams is, it's still missing communication functionality that businesses require, such as fax, phone tree, complex XML IVR, advance call routing, and more. Employees, customers, partners, and vendors need the ability to reach the right people in your organization quickly. Expanding your voice capabilities and add calling outside of your Microsoft Teams environment is possible with Voxtelesys Direct Routing or hosted SBC to your favorite telecom provider, Voxtelesys.

Cloud telephony provides voice communication services through the cloud-hosted environment. Services and data are managed off-premise in the cloud architecture accessible through the Internet.
Cloud Telephone service differs from the past. Businesses no longer require a physical PBX at each of their office locations. The traditional PBX requires physical space like a closet or server room, plus a telecom expert to maintain.
With cloud telephony, calls are hosted off-site. Cloud-hosted PBX now controls IP phones, mobile apps and PC clients in multiple locations and across various networks. Long gone are the physical wires and laborious on-site service orders. Changes are easily made in a few minutes.
Unified communications (UC) refers to a ubiquitous and comprehensive approach to communication and collaboration for the modern workforce. Unified Communications includes voice calls, video conferencing, instant messaging (IM), file sharing, and more.
Efficient collaboration, especially for work-from-home employees, is a critical differentiating factor for enterprises. When employees can communicate across various devices, apps, and media types; they achieve a level of productivity that once was only achievable in the office.
An effective strategy offers a consistent experience for employees across multiple platforms and locations whenever their location has a data connection. Consistency ensures that users can quickly collaborate with workflows without learning an extensive set of disparate tools.
From a business viewpoint, standardized and integrated tools are also much easier to manage. Fragmented systems require more training to ensure everything continues to function and to troubleshoot issues efficiently. That's why consolidating communication capabilities into one platform can bring enormous efficiencies to your IT staff.
