ASBCE with Direct Routing enables the users to receive traditional voice calls into the MS Teams client applications on desktops, laptops, mobile smartphones & tablets, dialing out to their Avaya extensions of their colleagues or landline numbers while maintaining their current DDIs. This feature does not require any extra training effort, multiple applications on their devices, or additional telecom costs. Thus, users are allowed to keep using the application that is already familiar to them for collaboration and everyday communication.
