Among the many implemented business solutions, DAC Systems highlights the focus on the integration of the Microsoft Teams platform as a key that helps customers understand how one can further extend the potential of teams’ self-organization in various business processes.
Currently, with more than 300 million users by the end of 2023 and being used by 91% of the clients from the fortune 100 companies, Microsoft Teams is testified as one of the most popular meeting applications in the global market. Apart from being a communication and collaboration platform that allows for holding meetings and making calls, Microsoft Teams forms a part of the Microsoft 365 ecosystem. This integration ensures that users can work together on a document simultaneously by creating, sharing and editing Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, and PowerPoint presentations all within this Teams application.
The Planner app in Microsoft Teams allows arranging all the tasks and plans within a company in one place and is a part of Microsoft 365. The application helps in organizing and managing tasks covering personal to-do list and group goals along with other options like grid view, dependency, schedule, and Gantt view.
For a company struggling with handling tasks and providing feedback, the use of Teams, Planner, and an integration of Loop components enables the employer to assign tasks to the employees. Outlook notifications notify employees about specific tasks to be done, which means that they can be completed within the app.
For instance, in the retail, healthcare Industries, or even in manufacturing companies where scheduling is relevant in Microsoft Teams, there are Shifts for management of schedules. This feature enables the managers to create, modify as well as monitor shift schedules effectively on an online platform. Moreover, the app enables the employees to sign in or sign out depending on their schedules and also to swap or provide other available options of shift that they do not want.
“Microsoft Teams is the cornerstone for building a modern digital workplace. By centralizing communication and collaboration tools, Teams allows businesses to streamline their operations and focus on delivering value. Our role as a trusted Microsoft partner with extensive experience across industry sectors is to ensure that companies leverage these capabilities to the fullest, transforming their communication landscape and fostering a culture of collaboration and efficiency.” Chief Resourcing Officer for DAC Systems, Kirk Schafer, said.
DAC Systems also provide the teams adoption, training on its use and general consultancy for the application of Microsoft Teams to every company. Understanding how the platform could integrate with Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365 and with third-party software and solutions, DAC establishes how businesses could cut the central costs of communication, enhance the speed of decision-making, and deliver better customer and employee experiences.
Some key features available in Microsoft Teams include enhanced telephony and call management, which many businesses are already transitioning to, to replace their old and complex PBX systems with a more fluid approach to communication tools. For example, Microsoft Business Voice 365 is a VoIP add-on kit to use Microsoft Teams’ Direct Routing for extending all employees’ PCs, tablets, and mobile phones into sophisticated soft phones replacing both, desktop phones, and old-fashioned on-premise Private Branch Exchange or PBX systems.
Further, it comes with effective work to collaboration features, safe sharing of files, and allows people to access it through their mobile phones. The Automate and Productivity section of the Microsoft Store has Smart Bot applications that users can install to do the work for them.
“Adopting Microsoft Teams is not just about upgrading technology. It comes down to transforming the way companies operate,” Schafer stated.
“Our clients have seen significant time savings and productivity boosts by integrating their communication tools into one platform. Teams not only support a high level of security and compliance but also allow for complete customization to meet the evolving needs of businesses.” he added.
