Teams is deeply integrated into all modern workplace business processes, yet Microsoft Teams issues can still arise.

Employees use Microsoft Teams to collaborate on documents and projects together and communicate on calls, and they use the chat feature to reduce email clutter. Teams features are used by contact centers, in executive meetings, for client pitches, employee townhalls, and more. This is why the Microsoft Teams platform is so critical for business productivity.

However, Microsoft Teams monitoring tools are limited to connectivity analysis and call quality dashboards. These tools do not provide the visibility, or the capabilities needed to troubleshoot Microsoft Teams call quality issues. They also don’t ensure the collaboration features are working well.

Martello Vantage DX™ is the only solution that proactively monitors for Microsoft Teams outages and call quality issues. Whether the Microsoft Teams problem is local or global, Vantage DX provides the data you need to troubleshoot.
