How does VoIP works

Teams allows you to have several phones ring when one extension is dialled. This VoIP Business feature is important for every business as it lets you improve the distribution of incoming calls between different departments. 

Usually, Teams are used to distribute incoming calls efficiently to particular departments such as the sales department, accounts, and customer support. This VoIP feature lets your staff become more productive and it also helps your company reduce customers hold time.

Ring Groups Scenario in PBX

Let’s suppose a small company which has just four employees sets up a team which has all four employees in it. Whenever there is an incoming call all four extensions of each employee rings together. Thus whoever receives the call first takes the call. You can also set up a ring group in which the phone rings a particular order so the work is equally distributed among the employees.

On the other hand, if there is a large company with different departments. The company can set up a ring group for every team. You can set up a team with both aspects to ring in order or to ring all at once according to your business needs.
