Frequently Asked Questions

What Microsoft Teams consulting services does EPC Group offer?

EPC Group provides Microsoft Teams deployment, governance, Phone System (PSTN/Direct Routing), security configuration, compliance setup, training, and adoption strategy. We specialize in enterprise Teams environments with 1,000+ users across healthcare, finance, and government.

Can Microsoft Teams replace our existing phone system?

Yes. Microsoft Teams Phone System with Calling Plans or Direct Routing can replace traditional PBX systems. EPC Group has migrated thousands of users from legacy phone systems to Teams Phone, including complex multi-site deployments with E911 compliance.

Is Microsoft Teams HIPAA-compliant for healthcare?

Yes, when properly configured. Microsoft Teams can be HIPAA-compliant with appropriate DLP policies, sensitivity labels, guest access controls, and audit logging. EPC Group deploys Teams for healthcare organizations with full HIPAA safeguards and BAA compliance.

How does EPC Group approach Teams governance?

EPC Group implements Teams governance frameworks covering team creation policies, naming conventions, lifecycle management, external sharing controls, guest access policies, retention settings, and Copilot governance — preventing the sprawl that plagues ungoverned Teams deployments.

Microsoft Teams Strategy: 2026 Considerations for Microsoft Teams For Frontline Workers

Teams Rooms (Microsoft Teams Rooms Pro license at $40/room/mo) brings governance, security, and remote management to conference-room hardware in 2026. Compared to dumb HDMI projectors, the per-room cost is offset within 12-18 months by reduced AV-support helpdesk volume, automatic firmware patching, and Microsoft Endpoint Manager-driven device compliance. Healthcare and financial services deployments typically standardize on Logitech Rally or Yealink for the room hardware.

Microsoft Teams Phone in 2026 is the modern enterprise PSTN replacement: Teams Phone Standard ($8/user/mo) for outbound calling via Microsoft Calling Plans, Teams Phone with Calling Plan Domestic ($15/user/mo) bundles 3,000 outbound minutes/user/mo, and Operator Connect lets enterprises retain incumbent carriers (BT, Verizon, Lumen) while integrating natively with Teams. The total-cost comparison vs legacy PBX favors Teams Phone for any deployment over 500 users.
