Audio Conferencing

Audio Conferencing is an add-on to Microsoft Teams that allows users to join meetings by dialing a number from their phones. This feature is included with the plans Enterprise E5— with Audio Conferencing—and Microsoft 365 Business Voice; for all other plans it is sold separately as an add-on.

Audio Conferencing comes in handy in a variety of scenarios, such as when:

  • The user doesn't have access to a computer or a mobile phone with the Microsoft Teams app installed or with a microphone configured.
  • The network bandwidth is not good enough for voice over IP to be used.

The add-on license for Audio Conferencing is only necessary for those users who will schedule meetings. Users attending meetings are not required to have the same license.

Audio Conferencing is not available in all countries. To check if it is available in your region, go to the following link and select your country to view the features available...
