Deep dives

Transitioning to Microsoft Teams

Dettour, a leading travel company, transitioned from a traditional Avaya PBX to Microsoft Teams as their communication platform. Initially prepared to implement Teams in 2019, the onset of the pandemic led to delays, but they eventually rolled it out in late 2020. The switch presented challenges for users accustomed to Avaya's control center, as Teams lacked certain functionalities. To address these gaps, they adopted Landis as their call center solution, which allowed them to monitor internal service center calls and evolve their communication capabilities effectively.
