Business users have a new way to communicate through Microsoft Teams. Verizon now offers Teams Phone Mobile service, which allows customers to access Teams through their mobile phone’s native dialer. The service also makes it possible to use a single phone number across devices. Verizon is the first carrier in the United States to offer the service and the third globally.
As Teams becomes more commonplace in professional settings, a service like Teams Phone Mobile allows users to extend their Teams communication across several devices. Verizon refers to Teams Phone Mobile as a “mobile-first Teams experience for today’s increasingly growing mobile workforce.”
Those on the service will be able to transfer between devices and Teams endpoints without having to hang up and re-enter a call. Support for using a single number across devices also makes it easier to stay connected to work, according to Verizon.
When anyone calls a number set up with Teams Phone Mobile, all devices connected to that number will be notified and able to answer that call.
