VOSS Solutions has told OSS News Review that its flagship product, VOSS-4-UC can now enable users for Microsoft Teams to optimize an organization’s Microsoft UC experience.

Microsoft Teams is the chat-based workspace component of Microsoft’s Office 365. Microsoft’s unified communications (UC) roadmap indicates that Microsoft Teams will be the combined platform for persistent chat, instant messaging, collaboration, enterprise voice, and conferencing. Its flexible framework allows organizations and groups of employees to customize the collaboration environment to drive productivity and real-time communications.

VOSS-4-UC, which has been ranked by Nemertes as the world #1 UC operational management platform, helps customers design, deploy, operate, and optimize the most advanced UC environments, on-premises or in the cloud. VOSS-4-UC enables users for Microsoft Teams as part of the user provisioning process, as well as Skype for Business and Exchange. While Microsoft Teams is a cloud-based service that is part of Office 365, Skype for Business and Exchange services can be provisioned regardless of whether they are on-premises or online. Users who are migrated to Skype for Business from legacy PBX systems via VOSS-4-UC can be enabled for Microsoft Teams as part of that migration process. As Microsoft adds more administrative features for Microsoft Teams, those features will be added to VOSS-4-UC.
