Teams Voice
Introducing Microsoft Teams to your phone system. A cost-effective way to call externally from Teams.
Incorporating direct routing into an all-in-one solution technology.
Phone System for Microsoft Teams
Your transition to Teams starts here!
Microsoft nailed it when they created Teams for internal collaboration, but when it comes to external communications most businesses find it lacking.
Our Direct Routing solutions enable you to go 100% Teams right now or transition gradually by integrating an existing PBX.
And our all-in-one solution is perfect for Teams natives looking to add features and resilience, or save money on expensive Microsoft Calling Plans.
Easy Direct Routing
Calling Pack
Simpler, cheaper and better than Microsoft’s Calling Plans.
Just £4.50 per user per month gives you 2,000 or 4,000 inclusive pooled minutes per user, per month (term dependent), built-in fraud prevention tools and superior failover options.
Your SIP
Connect your existing SIP lines with Microsoft Teams to enable inbound and outbound dialling.
Our connector enables you to make and receive external calls from your Microsoft Teams using either your existing SIP service or our own fully-integrated SIP lines with inclusive minutes and failover options.
Your PBX
Connect your existing phone system with Microsoft Teams for the best of both worlds.
Integrate Microsoft Teams with your existing voice platform to retain your existing phone system features but make and receive calls through Teams or use Your PBX as the starting point for a gradual transition to Teams.

The simplest way to leave behind your old on-premise PBX. We’ll provide you with a feature-rich cloud-hosted phone system, business-grade lines and Microsoft Teams interconnect all for one simple price.
What is Direct Routing?
Direct Routing is a way to connect your own telephony services to Microsoft Teams.
It allows you to utilize more phone system features than are built into Teams, either by connecting your own or another phone system.
It allows you to keep control over your inbound numbers, make your own deals on your calling plans and avoid Microsoft’s own expensive calling plan bundles. It gives you better resilience options in terms of not having all your services with Microsoft and gives you options if Microsoft goes down to root your calls a different way.
How do I do it?
You will need:
- For Office 365 E3 licenses or lower, you will need the Phone System add-on license and also the Audio Conferencing add-on license (if you wish to allow external parties to call into your audio conferences which most people will).
- Alternatively Office 365 E5 licenses or above, which has Phone System and Audio Conferencing bundled in.
- You will also need a Microsoft approved Session Boarder Controler’s (SBC).
One2Call can provide all of this for you.
Is it Easy Set Up?
SBC’s are a complex piece of equipment that deals with security and routing of your calls. It needs setting up properly and properly maintaining.
SBCs can be expensive. Depending on the size of your system it can be as expensive as a traditional PBX phone system.
It’s also not a common IT specialism. It’s not something you can assume that you can just hand over to your IT team and they’re going to know how to do it all, or be able to learn quickly.
Is it complex?
Easy Direct Routing by One2Call enables calling in teams without any SBC purchase or management.
You can use our SIP trunks, your SIP trunks, your phone system or our phone system – just configure it however you like!
And it can be delivered as an all-in-one solution to customers with Teams licenses, Direct Routing connection, SIP trunks and phone system features in one!
It’s a much simpler, easier way to enable inbound and outbound dialling with your Microsoft Teams.
Is it the right solution for us?
For most businesses, yes.
It gives you greater control over your important inbound calls and your customers’ inbound dialling and over the numbers that your teams are calling out.
It means you’re not wholly reliant on Microsoft which gives you extra resilience and failover options.
And it can give you much better functionality on your inbound calls than Microsoft enables built in. So, extra phone system features you might be using already, call centre features, call recording, call reports and things like that.

Get Calls when Microsoft Can’t
Intelligent Routing instantly detects if a user isn’t available and reroutes the call to a colleague, mobile voicemail or ring group in your system, so even if Microsoft ‘s services are unavailable, you aren’t! This means that your systems will be constantly running with little to no downtime. Meaning that your customers or clients will continue to have positive experiences when speaking with your business and will never be left unanswered.
Security Built In
All our Direct Routing Bolt Ons come with fraud monitoring and alerts, international and premium rate call barring, and spend notification alerts as standard, putting you in control of your call systems. This gives your business the opportunity to avoid possible fraudulent activity that could be damaging to your business.
