SAN JOSE, Calif. - e search is nally over
for Microso O ce 365 customers, who have been looking for a way to connect their business phone lines and systems to Skype for Business Online. With a vision to bridge the gap between di erent UC environments, Deltapath, Inc. announces the release of O365 Connector, an audio gateway designed for organizations that have adopted Microso O ce 365 and are seeking to unleash the full potential of Skype for Business.
Microso O ce 365 E1 and E3 subscribers can transform their experience with O365 Connector, which bridges their PSTN and PBX services to Skype for Business Online. is allows business calls to be channeled through legacy desk phones as well as Skype For Business clients, giving added convenience to
answer and make business calls from anywhere at anytime as well as eliminating mobile
voice roaming fees. O ce 365 E5 Cloud PBX subscribers can also utilize O365 Connector
to grow their business with purpose-built applications like Contact Center.
With its existing telephone system running in parallel with the cloud, organizations can
be reassured that telephony services remain operational even in the event of an Internet outage. O365 Connector is also designed
with an all-in-one simpli ed architecture that removes the complexity of connecting multiple telephone systems from multiple vendors to Microso O ce 365.
“Deltapath has continued to drive its innovation around interoperability between di erent UC environments. With Deltapath
O365 Connector, organizations can maintain the best of both worlds, by having easy and convenient ways to interact on Skype for Business while taking a risk-free adoption approach to maintain their existing PBX and PSTN practically unchanged, protecting their investment,” said David Liu, Founder and CEO of Deltapath.
DELTAPATH O365 CONNECTOR PROTECTS YOUR INVESTMENT AND DRIVES ROI
Deltapath O365 Connector solves an age-old dilemma for Microso O ce 365 Skype for Business users: Connecting legacy telephone systems and desk phones with Skype for Business. Many organizations have invested heavily in their corporate telephone systems
and as a result, may remain reluctant to immediately displace all of their invested telephony equipment with a new generation of Skype for Business certi ed equipment. With O365 Connector as a bridge between Skype for Business and the legacy world, employees can now answer their desk phone calls or make calls on their Skype for Business desktop or mobile.
Other organizations have also invested heavily in their own audio conference bridge. O365 Connector allows meeting participants to join an audio conference anywhere in the world from any Skype for Business client. is allows organizations to enjoy large savings on toll and line rental as less and less participants are using the organization’s toll free number.
