Merry Christmas from team Tendfor

We wish a very merry Christmas and all the best for an unusual holiday season to all our customers, partners, and friends.

This year – since most are not working from the office and times are hard for many – instead of sending out our traditional holiday treats, we have donated to SOS Children’s Villages.

Take care of each other. ❤

At this time, the certification protocols are only available for legacy style SBC connected systems with basic PBX functionality outside of the Teams platform. Microsoft calls these types of systems “Connected”.
