Operator Connect for Microsoft Teams

by CallTower Inc

Delivers PSTN access to Microsoft Teams users, to deliver an enhanced customer experience

ENABLING TEAMS AS A PRIMARY PHONE SYSTEM


Operator Connect allows Microsoft Teams administrators to open the “Operators” tab in the Teams admin center to connect calling services, acquire phone numbers, and assign users. Operators, such as CallTower, will provide technical support and manage the voice network and infrastructure. Operators can also enable PSTN voice services in regions currently unavailable through Microsoft Calling Plans. Implementation of voice services can be online in a matter of hours.
