History with Microsoft
ComputerTalk has been a Microsoft Partner since 2005, when ComputerTalk added support for Microsoft Live Communication Server (LCS), the predecessor to Office Communication Server (OCS), Lync, Skype for Business, and Teams, to our offering to deliver instant messaging for internal help desks. In 2007, ComputerTalk incorporated the next version, Office Communication Server, into the core platform and began working with Microsoft UCMA (Unified Communication Managed API) version 1.0. With early access to Lync 2010 and UCMA 3.0, ComputerTalk committed to Lync as the enabling platform.
This commitment has cemented the strong relationship between ComputerTalk and Microsoft, illustrated by being named Communication Partner of the Year in 2012. Some of our recent focuses include being part of several Microsoft Technology Adoption Programs (TAP), Co-Sell, Microsoft Teams Connected Contact Center Certification, and direct connections with the Microsoft Engineering teams in Redmond.

How we help customers
ComputerTalk’s infrastructure handled the election extremely well, as evidenced by our fully functional call center that had zero incident execution on polling day. I was able to track all calls and agents, and redirect calls to other queues or add queues when things picked up. Reports were generated so quickly - instantaneously - enabling us to monitor volumes and status at all times.

ice Contact Center for Microsoft Teams completely ties into email and everything Microsoft 365 offers. All the hooks for our entire ecosystem are there. Where before it was 3 or 4 systems you had to work around in, now it’s all connected.

We brought in ice knowing we could connect with our CRM. Building something that truly integrated the CRM and contact center sounded nice in theory, but it is even better in practice.
