Maximising the power of Microsoft Teams

True digital transformation connects people, data and applications. In education, one of the newest,  powerful and most successful platforms is Microsoft Teams.

Teams has helped learing become collaborative. Schools and colleges now have a digital hub, providing educators with a dynamic and user-friendly learning environment. Conversations, assignments, file sharing and apps can all be found together in one place. Staff are connected via many channels - and all from a single application.
Teams, however, does not have telephony built in with quality voice functionality. Nvoice for Microsoft Teams makes up for this, hosting intelligent telephony features at its core. When integrated, the suites provide a powerful unified communications experience.
