Microsoft Launches Teams Phone System In The UK

Microsoft Teams Phone System is a cloud-based phone system which is perfect for businesses with up to 300 users and enables you to call any phone number. It is integrated into Microsoft Teams, the new hub for productivity within the Office 365 suite now used by more than 13 million people on a daily basis.

With Microsoft Teams Phone System, any business can benefit from an all-in-one communication and collaboration solution that includes calling, chat, online meetings and content creation, all wrapped in the security, privacy, and compliance capabilities of Microsoft 365. It works cross-device (computers, smartphones, desk phones), allowing calls to be made from anywhere.

The incorporation of Microsoft artificial intelligence technology automatically translates chat messages, transcribes voicemails and adds captions to meetings in real-time.

In a blog post marking the launch of Microsoft Phone System, Microsoft said:

“Today’s businesses need communication and collaboration tools that are easy to use and designed to work together. That’s why we built Microsoft Teams Phone System. It integrates with Office 365, and together they deliver an all-in-one communication and collaboration solution. Starting today, Microsoft Phone System is available as an add-on to Microsoft 365 and Office 365 plans in Canada and the UK, and will be available globally in 2020.”

Additional Features

Microsoft Teams Phone System also includes the ability to collaborate in Office programs such as Outlook, Word, Excel and PowerPoint within calls and meetings, add a dial-in number to meetings, convert chats into meetings with one click, and start, schedule and join meetings from within Outlook.
