For organisations looking to consolidate their communication platforms, including those using Microsoft Calling Plans, E5/A5 licensing, or Microsoft Business Premium, this new product offers a more cost-effective and efficient service than a basic calling plan.

As a result, organisations can seamlessly integrate calls into existing online workflows while supporting hybrid work environments for improved business continuity.”
Espria Connect also provides IT leaders with a powerful tool. By offering valuable insights into communication patterns through data analytics and recordings, it supports accurate decision-making that contributes to business efficiency and productivity.
“The advanced analytics and call recording feature of our product will allow organisations to reap the benefits of real-time insights and enhance training and service quality by monitoring call volumes, identifying trends, and addressing any issues promptly,” the spokesperson added. “With the options for toll fraud management and trunk call management, businesses can maintain control over call routing, optimise their bandwidth usage, and detect anomalies to reduce telephony costs, thus enhancing communication flexibility.”
