Microsoft Teams Calling provides your business with options for either a fully 100% cloud-based solution OR a hybrid environment utilizing the required capabilities of PBX systems combined with the flexibility of Microsoft Teams. Microsoft took the complicated and expensive equipment required at your office location to bridge your VoIP calls with the PSTN and made it a subscription service in the cloud.
