Many Australian organizations still treat Microsoft Teams as “just a phone system.” But when you layer call analytics for Microsoft Teams and AI-powered recording on top of Teams calling, every conversation becomes structured data: coachable moments, customer sentiment, compliance evidence and pipeline signals. This guide (written for resellers and IT leads) explains practical deployments, the commercial value for clients, integration checklists, and how BroadConnect helps you deliver on Teams-based insight — securely and with on-shore data handling..
Why Teams needs analytics (and why clients notice the difference)
Using Teams solely for calls leaves rich signals on the table. Who called, when and for how long? That’s basic. What matters to business leaders is what customers actually said, whether calls were resolved, which hours need extra staff and which agents need coaching. Call analytics for Microsoft Teams turns raw voice into searchable transcripts, keyword highlights, sentiment trends and wallboard metrics — information that reduces missed calls, improves staffing and directly impacts revenue.
BroadConnect integrates Teams calling with enterprise-grade features: our AI meeting transcription & call recording keeps transcripts and recordings on-shore; our Cloud PBX and SIP trunking options ensure call reliability; and our managed IT & networking team validates network performance so analytics reflect real behaviour, not poor connectivity.
Real outcomes you can sell (short, tangible wins)
When clients add call analytics to Teams they typically see three immediate benefits: faster coaching cycles (quality improves because you can search and sample calls), fewer missed opportunities (wallboards and alerts flag unattended high-value enquiries), and simpler compliance (searchable, retained evidence for audits). For regulated industries, combining analytics with our cybersecurity controls and on-shore storage genuinely de-risks Teams deployments.
How the pieces fit together — a practical architecture
Designing a solution that delivers insight, not noise, requires more than switching on recording. At minimum you’ll combine: Teams calling, a certified recording/transcription partner, analytics and wallboards, CRM integration, and resilient connectivity. BroadConnect provides end-to-end delivery: from Teams integration to hardware provisioning and network resilience.
Key components we combine:
- Microsoft Teams calling tenancy integrated with certified recording platforms (see our Microsoft Teams guidance).
- On-shore AI transcription and indexed storage for fast search (AI meeting transcription & call recording).
- Real-time dashboards and wallboards feeding back to ops and managers (via our contact centre solutions).
- CRM and sales stack connectors so call-derived insights become action items in your pipeline (using our business phone systems and integration services).
- Resilient business internet (NBN/fibre) and optional 4G/5G failover to protect data quality (Business NBN, business mobile plans).
- Device provisioning and lifecycle support (hardware & provisioning).
Feature → Business benefit (table)
| Feature | What it delivers | Business outcome |
| Searchable transcripts & keyword tags | Find calls that mention “pricing”, “complaint”, “refund” instantly | Faster dispute resolution & evidence for compliance |
| Sentiment analysis & speaking-time metrics | Spot frustrated customers, long agent monologues | Targeted coaching → improved CSAT |
| Real-time wallboards & SLA alerts | Live view of answer rates and queue health | Reduce missed calls and adjust staffing |
| Call-to-CRM automated logging | Auto-create leads, dispositions and tasks | Faster follow-up → higher conversion |
| Redaction & retention controls | Remove or mask PII, apply retention policies | Meet industry rules (health, finance, legal) |
Implementation checklist (operationally focused)
Start small, prove ROI, then scale. Your baseline delivery plan should include: tenancy and licensing for Teams calling, certified Teams recording (configured for privacy and retention), CRM connector setup, wallboard and reporting design, a network health assessment (QoS and VLANs), and a 6–8 week pilot with clear KPIs. BroadConnect runs these pilots end-to-end and handles procurement of any SIP or Cloud PBX components needed — see our our services page to learn how we scope pilots.
Selling points for resellers (client conversation starters)
When positioning this to clients, lead with outcomes and risk reduction: “We’ll show you how many calls you miss each week, where staff need coaching, and how to keep recordings and transcripts in Australia for regulatory safety.” Useful discovery questions include: do you need long-term retention for call logs? Do you need live wallboards? Which CRM must we integrate with? BroadConnect supports common CRMs and can integrate Teams analytics into workflows that feed sales and service teams directly — read about our contact centre solutions for examples.
Our business has been using Broadconnect Telecom services for over 5 years. We have more than 600 devices across 14 large scale healthcare centres. Their VoIP solution is best in its class. The team at Broadconnect are a pleasure to work with – highly competent, very efficient & always responsive.
Compliance, security and data residency (short but essential)
For many clients the biggest barrier is privacy and governance. Using on-shore transcription and secure storage avoids cross-border transfer complexity. Combine Teams analytics with role-based access, TLS/SRTP encryption and retention policies, and you have a defensible audit trail. BroadConnect pairs analytics with enterprise security practices and our cybersecurity assessments so data is protected and auditable.
Pricing & commercial models (how to package it)
Resellers can offer analytics as a service: pilot fee + monthly platform and storage charges + optional managed services (dashboards, QA sampling, coaching). Consider packaging Teams calling, recording/transcription and analytics into a single monthly SKU that includes BroadConnect-managed connectivity and device support. For high-compliance clients, offer tiered retention plans (90 days to 7 years) and premium redaction/archiving services through our AI meeting transcription & call recording partners.
Quick pilot blueprint (recommended)
- Baseline: measure unanswered calls, CSAT and AHT for 2 weeks.
- Deploy: enable certified recording + basic analytics on a single team.
- Integrate: push transcripts and tags into CRM; enable wallboard.
- Tune: run A/B tests on prompts and coach using call snippets.
- Report: deliver a 30- and 90-day ROI report showing uplift in answer rate and lead follow-up times.
BroadConnect can design and run the entire blueprint, including procurement of any SIP trunks, Cloud PBX, or Teams-certified hardware — see SIP trunking, Cloud PBX and business phone systems.
Where to place this in your product stack (value ladder)
Offer basic analytics as an add-on to Teams calling, advanced transcription and sentiment analysis as a premium tier, and managed QA/coaching services as professional services. Tie analytics to tangible business metrics (reduced missed calls, faster follow-up, compliance readiness) and you’ll move the client conversation from “phones” to “business intelligence.”
