As the summer months come and you’re looking for some poolside reading let’s have a look at some of the upcoming Microsoft Teams Voice features and improvements planned for the coming months:

  1. VDI Solution for Teams:
    • Microsoft has redesigned the existing VDI optimisation for Teams. This enhancement will provide:
      • Enhanced performance (faster meeting joins, new codecs).
      • Improved reliability (higher success rates for creating and joining meetings and screensharing).
      • Better supportability via the Teams admin centre and Call Quality Dashboard.
      • Additional features like advanced meeting capabilities and a simpler app update experience.
  2. Customize Draft Messages with Copilot:
    • You can now instruct Copilot to adjust your draft messages in chat or channels. For example, you can ask Copilot to add a call to action, make the message persuasive, or convert it into a list with inclusive language. This feature requires a Copilot for Microsoft 365 license.
  3. Intelligent Message Translation in Chats:
    • When you receive a message in a different language, Teams will suggest translating it into your preferred language. You can customise translation settings and streamline communication across different language speakers.
  4. Slash Commands:
    • Slash commands provide a quick, user-friendly interface for taking command of your actions within Teams.
  5. New Range of Teams Certified Devices:
    • Logitech Zone Wireless 2: AI-powered headset for noise-free calls
    • Jabra Evolve2 75: Premium ANC headset for hybrid working
    • Poly Voyager Focus 2 UC: High-quality wireless headset
    • Jabra Evolve2 Buds: Officially certified earbuds for Teams meetings.
    • Yealink BH71 Workstation Pro: Mono Bluetooth wireless headset for on-the-go and hybrid work

And lots more such as the Yealink T45 USB phone or AudioCodes 450 – both incredibly priced Teams phones for hot desking, common area phones and more.  To find out more call one of our Team on 0118 940 9000 or fill in the form below.
