Over the Wire’s NetSIP Voice Platform now offers Direct Routing Calling Solution for Microsoft Office 365 and Teams
Announcement posted by Over the Wire 08 Jul 2020
Over the Wire has today released Microsoft Teams Direct Routing calling plans, so
your organisation can now call externally to the PSTN without the need for onpremises
hardware.
Over the Wire’s purpose is to simplify technology to empower business. To this end,
we’ve extended our powerful NetSIP voice platform to natively provide competitively
priced global calling from Teams.
Microsoft Teams is the fastest growing business app in Microsoft history with some 44
million daily users at time of writing.
A move away from legacy on-premise telephony to cloud-delivered unified
communications services is now more compelling than ever. Extending Office 365
licensing to include Teams is easy – and now adding Direct Routing makes the transition
to true cloud telephony simple and fast.
That’s why we’ve developed our class leading NetSIP voice platform to provide Direct
Routing capability for Microsoft Teams. This new service enables people to call
numbers outside the Microsoft cloud, increasing their productivity and building on Over
the Wire’s strengths in voice and data networking, cloud and security.
As an alternative to the traditional providers, Over the Wire offers both competitive
rates and improved service. We also deliver a number of services that help
organisations bring together Microsoft Teams collaboration with our voice services,
including:
● Session Border Controller configuration and management
● A choice of competitive voice calling plans using our national SIP network
● Integration services for our existing voice and contact centre platforms
● Self-service customer portal for ordering and routing numbers
● Flexible call routing for inbound calls
NetSIP carries millions of calls every day over our highly resilient SIP platform located in
geo-redundant voice hubs across Australia, terminating your calls using the best
possible path at the highest possible quality.
Over the Wire offers the Direct Calling SIP service as a standalone offering, not requiring
customers to migrate Office 365 licensing away from their current provider. This means
Over the Wire will not compete with Microsoft Partners, but instead enhance their
service suite and potentially provide them with new revenue streams.
Michael Omeros, Group CEO of Over the Wire, explained that employees want to
collaborate in many different ways, but without the pain of disparate systems; “We are
always looking for ways to improve our customers’ productivity using telecoms. We
know that people want to see a truly unified collaboration experience and that is now
possible combining Microsoft Teams with NetSIP.”
