Throughout the world MS Teams is continuing to make its mark as the leading chat-based collaboration platform. The service comes complete with document sharing, online meetings, and many more extremely useful features for business communications. The uptake in the use of MS Teams has exploded amid the Coronavirus pandemic . Latest published numbers from Microsoft reported 75M daily unique active MS Teams users, that’s up 70% from 44 million daily active users  reported in March.

Business is finding that having an excellent MS Teams space is key to being able to make creative decisions and communicate with one another and now, with 1Connect hosted telephony service Call2Teams, you can make and receive calls on any device you have Microsoft Teams enabled.

However, what makes this service indispensable at this time when some business knowledge workers may still be locked down at home or self isolating, whilst others are back in the office, is that there is no hardware or software to install. The service can be set up in minutes and, just like any application provided via the cloud, it is consumed by a simple monthly subscription.

For those workers who are able to go back into their offices each day, the service compliments or even replaces existing handsets.

Users are finding that adding calling to Teams increases productivity especially as this service works on the desktop as well as mobile devices and can be enabled for specific workers, groups or company-wide.

Organisations that hurriedly put in place home working solutions back in March may have overlooked the data security aspects of their set up so will be assured to know that with 1Connect Call2Teams Enterprise grade encryption and security are built in.

At a time when companies need all the help possible to maintain their market presence and competitiveness this solution from 1Connect will keep them in the game.
