Microsoft Teams Calling: The Incredible Microsoft Partner Business Opportunity
| 3 min read

- Kevin MartinsExecutive Vice President
Legacy PBX systems and standalone calling platforms are quickly becoming a thing of the past in favor of Microsoft Teams Calling. Voice, meetings, conferencing, and collaboration are consolidated into the Microsoft 365 platform that is easier to manage, more secure, and better aligned with modern work.
As demand for Teams Calling grows, many Microsoft partners find themselves in a familiar position. The opportunity is there, but the specialized telecom and Teams expertise required to deliver these projects at scale is not always available. This is where we are often engaged. Our consultants bring deep telco and Microsoft Teams experience that partners use to successfully deliver Teams Calling projects without having to build or staff that expertise themselves.
Why Teams Calling Migrations Are Different
Replacing a PBX or migrating from providers such as Zoom, Five9, Vonage, or other voice platforms involves far more than enabling Teams Phone licenses. These projects require deep understanding of legacy PBX systems, SIP, carrier services, number porting, E911, call routing, contact centers, and conference rooms.
Dial plans and emergency services must be correct before the first user is migrated. Cutovers must be precise. There is very little margin for error, which is why experience matters. Our senior consultants who have migrated tens of thousands of phone numbers know how to avoid the issues that derail projects.
A Teams Calling Practice Built on Decades of Telecom Experience
At The Partner Masters, Microsoft Teams Calling is a core service offered to Microsoft Partners. Our senior consultants bring decades of hands-on telecom experience and have led large scale migrations from traditional PBX systems and standalone calling platforms into Microsoft Teams.
We support partners across the full lifecycle of Teams Calling engagements, from assessment and design through cutover and optimization. Our focus is on smooth transitions and reliable calling from day one. We design solutions that work in real world environments where downtime and failed ports are unacceptable.
Increasing Partner Capacity and Accelerating Revenue
Many Microsoft partners successfully sell Teams Calling projects but lack available telecom resources to deliver them quickly. Internal teams are often booked out for months, delaying deployments and revenue recognition.
The Partner Masters helps solve this problem by acting as a trusted subcontractor either as ourselves or under a white label. Our consultants integrate directly into partner-led engagements without competing for the customer relationship. This results in increased delivery capacity so projects can move forward immediately. This allows partners to deliver faster, recognize revenue sooner, and confidently pursue more Teams Calling opportunities. Maximizing partner profitability is central to everything we do.
Government Community Cloud and CMMC Aligned Secure Voice
The Partner Masters has deep experience delivering Microsoft Teams Calling within the Government Community Cloud. GCC environments introduce additional requirements around identity, compliance, and encryption that must be addressed correctly.
Microsoft Teams Calling in GCC supports end-to-end encryption and aligns with CMMC requirements by protecting voice communications that may involve Controlled Unclassified Information. When designed properly, Teams Calling becomes part of a broader zero trust and compliance strategy for government agencies and defense contractors.
A Partner First Delivery Model
The Partner Masters does not go directly to market and does not compete with our partners. We operate as an extension of partner delivery teams, supporting pre-sales, design, migration, and post cutover optimization.
We deliver structured projects with clear communication, detailed documentation, and a focus on quality because we represent our partners in every engagement.
Next Steps
If you are a Microsoft partner delivering or planning to deliver Microsoft Teams Calling services, including GCC environments with CMMC aligned security requirements, please contact The Partner Masters. Our goal is to help accelerate delivery while protecting profitability. We would welcome the conversation.
