The most inspiring feature
The company needed to enable telephony from the Teams app to ensure a full unified communications capability for its staff and customer service teams.
We looked closely at the cost and business case for achieving our goal of moving everything to the cloud. We found that using Microsoft Teams and working with GTT to enable voice for our new, completely cloud-based solution would bring us a great many benefits.
