Evolve IP's launch of voice enablement for Microsoft Teams brings a hybrid deployment model and two license options under the brand Voice2Teams and Voice2Teams Plus.
The service is based on the Cisco BroadSoft hosted UC platform which has over 70 million users worldwide.
"We are bringing our many years of delivering carrier grade hosted telephony to the Microsoft world," said MD Paul Harrison.
"By leveraging our portfolio of products alongside the Cisco BroadSoft platform, Evolve IP can deliver services and solutions on top of the Microsoft Platform.
"Customers can use voice enabled Teams mixed with other IP endpoints such as handsets, DECT phones and door entry systems, with just the Teams users requiring a Microsoft license.
"The solution also brings call routing and a full UC feature set with DR and real-time fraud management."
The launch comes as Cisco reaffirmed its commitment to BroadWorks as a 'critical strategic asset', quashing opposite industry rumours, and Cisco also confirmed that BroadWorks is the call control application for its new Webex Calling solution.
