What happens if there is an internet outage or Microsoft 365 isn’t available?
We recommend that you set up an emergency plan for calls to be diverted as close to the originating call as possible. This would mitigate most potential outage scenarios.
Can a user have a physical phone?
Yes, so long as it is Microsoft Teams Certified.
What happens if I add users and move into a different price bracket?
If you add or remove users in a month, your monthly price will automatically adjust to the relevant price point. To get a lower price point, you may find it useful to add some dummy users.
Where are calls routed to?
Calls to or from Landlines and Mobiles will flow between Microsoft and One NZ's telephony network.
Do conference calls remain in New Zealand?
No, conference calls will be hosted along with your Microsoft 365. For most New Zealand customers, this will be in Australia. As calls route across Microsoft networks, there is no noticeable delay. Even calls hosted in Europe work well.
