Overview

Make and receive phone calls directly in Teams.

Teams Phone System offers IVR, call queues, music on hold, voicemail and more, to replace your existing phone system and handsets and let your users make and receive phone calls wherever they are working from.

Enfonica supports Teams Phone System with Microsoft Teams Direct Routing: we connect Teams to the public phone network over Teams-enabled Cloud SIP trunks, and let you purchase and configure Australian phone numbers for your users.

Key features

Teams Direct Routing, made simple.

Quick setup

Set up one or more Teams-enabled SIP trunks instantly in the Enfonica Console, each with a dedicated FQDN. Then follow our Teams Direct Routing guide to complete the configuration in Microsoft 365.

Keep your current numbers

Use your current numbers by porting them to Enfonica. We will handle the entire porting process for you.

Scale instantly

Scale your Teams-enabled SIP trunk in seconds, using the Enfonica Console to increase or decrease the number of simultaneous calls you need.

Use advanced routing

As well as Teams IVR, you can use Enfonica Flow to build highly customisable IVRs and let your staff update them as needed, without being a Global Administrator.

Costs

$10 per channel.

Enfonica charges for Teams-enabled SIP trunks based on what you use: the number of simultaneous calls (channels) that you need, plus call costs.

Other vendors charge large per-user fees that might include unlimited calls. This quickly adds up, as you're essentially buying a phone plan for every user, and the vast majority of users will never make enough calls to justify paying a premium for unlimited calls.

With Enfonica, you can have 10 users or 1,000 users and you will still only pay for what you use.

Pricing example: 10 channels shared by 40 Teams users for $100 per month
Benefits

The Enfonica difference.

Channel-based pricing

Don't pay extra by paying for each user. Pool your capacity across all users and pay only for the simultaneous calls that you need.

Retain control of Microsoft Teams

You are responsible for configuring Microsoft 365 and do not need to give Enfonica any access to it.

Make changes without Global Admins

Configure your IVRs in Enfonica Flow and let staff make adjustments on the fly, even if they aren't a Microsoft 365 Global Administrator.

Multiple number types

Use any type of phone number in Teams. Enfonica supports Australian local, mobile, 13, 1300 and 1800 numbers.

FAQ

Microsoft Teams Direct Routing: common questions.

What is Microsoft Teams Direct Routing?

Direct Routing connects Teams Phone System to the public phone network through a SIP trunk from a provider such as Enfonica. Your users can then make and receive ordinary phone calls in Teams, using phone numbers you buy from or port to Enfonica, instead of desk phones.

How much does Teams Direct Routing cost with Enfonica?

$10 per channel, plus call costs. A channel is one simultaneous call, and channels are pooled across all your users, so you pay for the calls you actually make rather than a fee for every user. Call rates are on our pricing page.

Do I have to give Enfonica access to Microsoft 365?

No. You configure Microsoft 365 yourself and keep full control of Microsoft Teams. Enfonica provides the Teams-enabled SIP trunk and phone numbers.

Can I keep my existing phone numbers in Teams?

Yes. Port your numbers to Enfonica and we will handle the entire process for you, with no service interruptions. Learn more about porting your phone numbers.

Which phone numbers can I use in Teams?

Any type. Enfonica supports Australian local, mobile, 13, 1300 and 1800 numbers in Microsoft Teams. See the full range of business phone numbers.

How long does setup take?

You can create a Teams-enabled SIP trunk instantly in the Enfonica Console, then complete the Microsoft 365 configuration by following our Teams Direct Routing documentation.

Give everyone in Teams a real phone number.

$10 per channel, shared across all your users, plus calls. Keep your numbers, and keep full control of Microsoft 365.
