What Is Teams Phone?
Teams Phone turns Microsoft Teams into a full cloud phone system — replacing your traditional PBX with call queues, auto attendants, voicemail, call transfer, and music on hold.
Key capabilities:
- 📞 Make/receive calls via Teams desktop, mobile, or IP phones
- 🔀 Call queues and auto attendants
- 📱 Voicemail with transcription
- 🔄 Call transfer, park, and forwarding
- 🎵 Music on hold, call recording
⚠️ Teams Phone ≠ PSTN. Teams Phone gives you the software PBX. For actual phone numbers and PSTN connectivity, you need a Calling Plan ($8-15/user), Operator Connect, or Direct Routing (bring your own SBC).
