Telnyx now offers Direct Routing for Microsoft Teams

27, Apr 2021

Telnyx is happy to announce that we now support Direct Routing for Microsoft Teams. This means MS Teams users can now enjoy all the benefits of partnering with a Tier 1 provider while using your favorite communications software.

What is Direct Routing?

Direct Routing is a way to provide a PSTN connection to Microsoft Teams users so that they can make and receive external phone calls on any device using Teams. This allows MS Teams users to use the platform as a primary business telephony system.

Telnyx provides the SBC to interconnect with MS Teams for free through a simple portal configuration. Companies who choose to use Telnyx to route calls using MS Teams will benefit from:

Improved call quality, thanks to our global, private network
More control over dialing plans and phone numbers
Lower calling costs when compared to Microsft Teams Calling Plans
Ability to scale faster thanks to Tier 1 interconnects with partners across the globe.

How do I get started?

You can get started by setting up a Telnyx account in our Mission Control Portal. From there, you can follow our latest Configuration Guide to set up Direct Routing for Microsoft Teams.
