N

Many eyebrows were raised when the announcement of Skype for Business End of Life was made last year from Microsoft, that too, in favor of a new M365 system: Microsoft Teams. Not only Teams is native to Microsoft 365, but is also an “integrated” system that provides the business a modern communication solution; a full-fledged Microsoft Teams phone system.

Not only Microsoft offers a business-oriented telephony system but it also fosters better communication with its certified Microsoft Teams desk phones like Yealink VP59 and other Voice and Display devices. Recently, Microsoft announced some advancement in its Teams functionalities including an introduction of SIP Phones!

The need for Teams Voice Devices

With the rapid adoption of Microsoft Teams, especially after the pandemic, organizations are finding ways to collaborate with video and audio-conferencing capabilities. Teams Voice and Display Devices are used to cater to the growing business collaboration need as companies make the shift to a hybrid mode of work. Apart from typical desk phones like Yealink VP59, Microsoft is introducing the capability of fully integrated Teams SIP based Phones for a rich Microsoft Teams phone system experience. These phones are expected to have basic Phone capabilities while working with Microsoft Teams. Basic features include ring, dial, and answer functionality. They can, however, not feature the more advanced Teams functionalities

An insight into Microsoft O365 groups management

A

Management Is Everything. May it be financial, technical, digital communication based, or management of cloud business on the whole. With cloud management tools, the tedious task of management looks less burdening. The idea is to invest in the Right cloud management tools for a progressive cloud business.

Office 365 is a robust environment where cloud business can flourish if used the Right way. Many admins still don’t know how to unleash the potential of their cloud business with O365 groups feature provided under the Office 365 umbrella. For admins, they can control O365 groups option in three different ways:

  • Disable Office 365 groups self-service creation Option completely

Disabling the service altogether tenant-wide is the most straight forward approach. In such a case, users aren’t allowed to create things on their own, resultantly; the admin will be flooded with requests all the time to get users’ jobs done.  If this becomes time consuming, they might opt for alternate management tools which will do more harm than good.

  • Enable Office 365 groups creation for a selected pool of users

Users who are already comfortable with using O365 groups can be privileged to allow for creating O365 groups and their own resources like Planner. In this case, a PowerShell is run to make sure that the creation services are disabled for all other users. Only a selected group of individuals can utilize this service

  • Allow Office 365 groups self-service creation option to everyone

You can use this option when you wish to Empower your Team entirely. It is best suited when you have finally opted the cloud-first approach and enable digitization and agility rather than control and governance. Once your cloud business Team is mature enough, this option is defiantly a must
