Lionbridge Uses GTT SIP Trunking With Microsoft Teams Direct Routing to Improve Customer Experience and Operational Efficiencies

GTT Communications, Inc., a leading global cloud networking provider to multinational clients, today announced it has delivered a SIP Trunking solution to Lionbridge, a global leader in translation and localization solutions, that enables direct routing for voice applications over their Microsoft Teams platform in the U.S., Canada and Brazil, and across Europe. The solution covers 60 SIP Trunk channels and includes more than 3,850 telephone numbers in 17 countries.

“GTT impressed us as the only provider able to offer direct routing to MS Teams through a cost-effective ‘as-a-Service’ delivery model . . . ”
—Daniel Hebert, Senior Systems Engineer, Lionbridge

Lionbridge’s expert staff rely on voice and collaboration services to support its customers with multilingual localization, content creation and search engine optimization. GTT’s global, fully redundant SIP-based network provides PSTN access to Lionbridge’s Microsoft Teams platform, ensuring its offices have the lowest-latency connectivity for voice applications utilized on the unified communication and collaboration platform.

“The GTT team did an excellent job of guiding us through every phase, including design, number porting and implementation.”
—Daniel Hebert, Senior Systems Engineer, Lionbridge

When completing its migration from Skype for Business to Microsoft Teams, Lionbridge was able to avoid the costs of installing its own session border controller by leveraging GTT’s global direct routing capabilities with Microsoft Teams. A longstanding GTT customer for voice services in Europe, Lionbridge also reduced the complexity of managing its voice solution by consolidating all its voice services in the Americas and Europe with GTT as part of this new deployment.
