Getting the job done: Step 1 Voice Governance
Carriers do not always want to help customers move
You need the skill of managing the complexities of site to site feature needs
Requirements managed, anticipated, and built into the project plan
Porting targets hit and business critical telephony maintained
What to watch out for? Outcome
Teams Voice and Video patterns vary depending on the Teams Use Case
Network Probes deployed and load assessment completed: Don’t forget about the wifi
High Quality synchronous meetings and Teams usage that scales with the business
Outcome
Getting the job done: Step 2 Preparing the network
What to watch out for?
Requirements not clearly defined around how Teams will benefit your business and users
Key stakeholders and champions not identified
If you don’t create governance, there is risk
Great user adoption rates and measurable ROI
Getting the job done: Step 3 Teams Deployed but not adopted
OutcomeWhat to watch out for?
"You may be tempted to deploy a 'big bang' approach by launching all of teams features in
Island mode, but if you don't do the compliance work you may upset your users by taking away
critical features"
– EMEA Solution Architect Team
Current Architecture Collects Dust
Organizations not considering integrations with legacy tech that is a important to the business
Audit the legacy video room equipment, Contact Centre Needs, and Handset requirements and build it into your project plan
Outcome
Getting the job done: Step 4 Not Connecting Legacy Architecture with ‘Teams’ based working
What to watch out for?
