Lumen Voice Complete Replacement
Replacing Lumen Voice Complete? Map the environment before you choose the next platform.
Voice Complete can sit at the center of numbers, routing, SIP, legacy TDM and location-specific requirements. Muse Mobility helps businesses evaluate what should be preserved, modernized or retired before selecting the replacement.
Replacement Paths
Choose the architecture that fits the business now.
A Voice Complete replacement may be another carrier SIP service, a cloud voice platform, UCaaS, Microsoft Teams Voice, or a hybrid architecture. The right choice depends on users, locations, applications, survivability and contact-center requirements.
Keep centralized SIP where it still fits the architecture.
Move users and calling features to a cloud communications platform.
Integrate PSTN calling with Microsoft Teams where the organization is already standardized on Teams.
Separate user calling, contact center, legacy devices and specialty lines when one platform should not do everything.
Migration Planning
Do not treat number porting as the entire project.
The transition should account for call routing, emergency calling, toll-free, inbound services, SBCs, dial plans, network readiness, user adoption and fallback.
Build a complete number and service inventory before submitting ports.
Use waves when a multi-location environment is too risky for one cutover.
Validate fax, alarms, contact center, call recording and other dependencies.
Define who owns ports, troubleshooting, carrier coordination and post-cutover support.
