Teams calling for R65 a user

The price

R65 per user, per month

That is the calling, on top of the Microsoft licence you already pay for. No calling plan to buy from Microsoft, no per-minute bundle to reconcile.
MonthlyR65Per user, per month, billed monthly.
AnnualR650Per user, per year, on our annual price list — the same month, paid up front.
Microsoft licenceYoursBought from Microsoft or your Microsoft partner — not from us, and not marked up by us.

How that compares

Same job — a dial pad in Microsoft Teams on a South African network — priced per user per month.
Telecloud Operator Connect (BYOL)R65 per user / month
Telvivaabout R99 per user / month
R34 a user a month less — R408 a user a year on the published rates.Telviva's rate is as published by bizcommunity.com; ours is off our live price list, checked when this page loaded. Both exclude the Microsoft licence, which you buy from Microsoft either way.

What bring your own licence means

Two bills, two owners, no overlap. You keep buying Microsoft 365 from Microsoft. We supply the telephony that sits behind it — and we never resell you a Microsoft licence you already have.
Every user
Microsoft 365 with TeamsAny plan that includes Teams — Business Basic, Business Standard, Business Premium, E3 or E5. Most of your users already have this.
Every calling user
Teams Phone StandardThe add-on that puts a dial pad in Teams. Included in Microsoft 365 E5 — on every other plan, buy it per calling user.
Each auto attendant or queue
Teams Phone Resource AccountFree from Microsoft. Assign one to every auto attendant and call queue that holds a phone number.
Do not buy a Microsoft Calling Plan or Teams Phone with Calling Plan — your calls and numbers come from us, so that would be paying twice.

Three steps to live

Keep your licence, we peer with Azure, you assign users in Teams — nobody changes the app they work in.

Keep your Microsoft licenceYou buy Microsoft 365 with Teams — and Teams Phone Standard for anyone who makes calls — from Microsoft or your Microsoft partner. We do not sell Microsoft licences.
Step 2
Telecloud peers with AzureWe connect directly to Microsoft Azure on a 1:1 trusted connection, add South African numbers on our network, and take over the call routing behind your Teams tenant.
Step 3
You assign users in TeamsNumbers and users are provisioned from the Teams Admin Center — the console your IT team already administers Teams from. No new app to roll out.
