Microsoft plans to include free audio conferencing with Teams along with a 35% discount off its new Advanced Communications option.
Scott Gode, chief product marketing officer of managed service provider Unify Square said that Microsoft will apply a ‘freemium’ type offer to help get both net-new customers as well as a larger percentage of total users within current customers to use Teams. Customers win by receiving short-term cost savings to help out with current budgeting pressures, Gode added.
