Microsoft Teams Phone Administration with CoreView

In this video, we'll talk about different ways to leverage CoreView in order to augment and enhance the administration of Microsoft Team's Phone. Two unique solutions that aid in streamlining operations and avoiding unnecessary business impacts are segmentation and delegation.

• Segmentation means making sure that your IT and telephony admins are operating within their administrative perimeter. (CoreView's virtual tenants functionality makes this a snap.)

• Delegation is making sure that your local teams are operating with precisely the administrative privileges they require, and nothing more. CoreView's granular permission sets concept allows for flexible design of a true lease ped access model.

Let's take a quick look at what I mean within the CoreView portal itself.

The Basics: Teams Voice in CoreView the Set-Up

First and foremost, we'll need some phone numbers to work with. Today I'm managing direct routing numbers, so I'll take advantage of CoreView's, new import feature to load a preexisting list of numbers to my portal in just a couple of clicks.

Now that we have some direct routing numbers to work with, let's take a look at some reports here. 

We have a series of reports that allow administrators to view, manage, and assign phone numbers within their organization. You can now easily pull reports around:

• User call quality
• Teams voice users
• Voice usage 
• Auto attendants
• Call Queues

Benefits of Granular Permissions with Teams Phone

CoreView's Virtual Tenants capability allows admins to scope the results of these reports to a predefined range of numbers.

This allows for segmentation of the data so that operators only see the subset of numbers they have direct responsibility for. 

In this example, I'm responsible for a very specific range of numbers within Ireland. 

As a CoreView operator, I have a whole host of management actions at my disposal to help me take care of my daily administrative responsibilities. I can easily filter down by:

• Users
• Distribution groups
• Microsoft 365 group
• Security group
• Mailbox
• Mail contact
• Devices
• On-premises
• OneDrive
• SharePoint
• Teams

CoreView's, permission sets, allow for fine tuning of exactly what operators are and aren't able to do with the data they're responsible for, and the possibilities for fine tuning this experience are virtually limitless. 

Permission sets can be broken down (for Microsoft teams in particular)

• Add members to Teams Groups
• Archive Teams Group
• Assign phone numbers
• Create Teams Group
• Create Teams group channel
• Create Teams resource account
• Create Teams auto attendant
• Create Teams call queue
• Edit Teams auto attendant

In this example, I've been given access to perform a short list of actions against these numbers.

These are just a couple of examples of how CoreViews, teams voice capabilities allow IT organizations to augment and enhance their existing options to design more efficient and compliant strategies towards success.
