What Is a Teams Phone Migration?

A Microsoft Teams Phone migration is the process of moving your organisation’s PSTN calling services into Microsoft Teams, enabling users to make and receive external calls directly from the Teams app.

Rather than a “rip and replace” project, organisations can migrate at their own pace from on-premises PBXs, Cisco Webex Calling, hosted PBXs and other cloud calling platforms. This allows users, sites or countries to transition gradually while existing voice services continue to operate, reducing risk and disruption.

Why Choose Callroute for Your Teams Phone Migration

Unlike traditional migration approaches, Callroute sits in the call path while your existing voice services continue to operate uninterrupted.

Once your phone numbers are routed through Callroute, Microsoft Teams becomes another available destination, enabling you to migrate users, phone numbers and services gradually, without disruptive day-one cutovers.

Connect Your Existing Voice Platform

Connect your existing PBXs, hosted PBXs, analogue devices and SIP platforms to Callroute while maintaining your current calling services.

Migrate at Your Own Pace

Gradually migrate users, phone numbers, sites or departments to Microsoft Teams without disrupting existing voice services or business operations.

Bulk Provision Teams Users

Quickly provision Teams Phone users, assign phone numbers and apply voice policies using CSV imports without requiring PowerShell expertise.

Centralise Number Management

Manage and organise all your phone numbers from a single portal, providing complete visibility throughout your Teams Phone migration.
