Combining the functionality of Microsoft Lync with the cost-savings of ThinkTel's SIP Trunking solution is the best way to reduce your telecom expenses and maximize your ROI.

Our unique edge


ThinkTel is the first (and only) Canadian provider independently certified to meet Microsoft's requirements for SIP trunking to both OCS 2007 R2 and Lync servers. This unrivalled interoperability makes us the partner of choice of top Canadian organizations looking for advanced IP telephony services to complement their Microsoft UC solution.

  • Lync's PSTN dialing and in-house multimedia conferencing capabilities
  • A streamlined SIP trunk network configuration with aggregate capacity across multiple sites
  • The reduced costs associated with Capacity On Demand and in-network calling features
  • An advanced management portal with real-time DID provisioning and reporting capabilities
