Cloud PBX
Cloud PBX is the Microsoft technology that enables call control and PBX capabilities in the Office 365 cloud with Skype for Business Online. The Skype for Business Cloud PBX application allows you to replace the existing PBX with a set of features provided directly from Office 365 and integrated into the company’s cloud productivity experience.
CRESCENDO Managed Services for Office 365 Communication enables customers to communicate based on Skype for Business and Cloud PBX / PSTN Conferencing. We have the certificates to deliver these services and we rely on the Skype Operations Framework methodology. For the successful deployment and adoption of Cloud PBX with Office 365, the Microsoft Skype Operations Framework (SOF) is built into CRESCENDO services.

SOF is a comprehensive guide and set of tools for implementing and managing a reliable and cost-effective communications service based on Skype for Business online. SOF covers the entire life cycle of the project from planning, delivery, adoption, operation and migration.
