Hi

I have Skype for Business installed as part of Office 365 Business Premium.

I want to be able to call, and be called by, PSTN phones.

It appears that this feature is only available in the US at the moment.

Does anyone know when (or if) this will ever come to NZ? I assume a local NZ telco needs to partner with MS before it can be offered.

Cheers

At the moment in NZ you require an on-premise Skype for business server to hook a SIP trunk up to. I believe there are a couple of vendors offering a hosted solution (Lexel I think is one such provider)

Cloud PSTN is coming later this year or more likely next year with both Spark and Vodafone. Right now you need an on-premise server with a voice gateway of some kind. We use Sonus.
