Review: Jabra Evolve 75e MS

This week I had the possibility to test the new Jabra Evolve 75e MS, a wireless earbud design. And I must say I like the design. 

/

Some quick info on this headset:

• Stereo-earphone headset;
• Bluetooth connector, no cords to the headset;
• Busy light for your colleagues;
• Microphone only on right side;
• Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) switch;
• List-in function;
• Vibrator for incoming calls;
• Magnetic earbuds.

It will take only 2 hours for fully charge of the headset and you will have up to 14 hours of battery life.

Have your Microsoft Teams meeting call you back

If you’ve got a Skype for Business Audio Conferencing license, you’re now able to dial out to your own phone number from a current meeting. This allows you to transfer meeting audio to your phone if you’re having network problems, need to get in the car or on a slow connection.

Mute someone in a Microsoft Teams Meeting

Microsoft has released (Januari 17) some new features to the Microsoft Teams client.

Mute someone in a meeting

Mute individual meeting participants straight from the meeting roster to cut down on background noise. If someone has been muted, they’ll get a notification letting them know. They’ll be able to unmute themselves if they need to chime in.

Mute everyone in a meeting

If you ever need to mute all the other participants in a meeting, head to your meeting roster and select Mute all. Each individual will get a notification and be able to unmute themselves if they need to.

Skype for Business Online Call Queues: Agent Opt In/Out

Last night Microsoft announced and published the Agent Opt In/Out feature to Skype for Business Online.

This update allows Admins to grant Call Queue Agents an ability to Opt In and Out from taking calls from a particular Queue at will.

For all newly created Call Queues, Agent Opt In/Out option will be enabled by default. For pre-existing Call Queues, Admins will need to enable this feature manually.
