MICROSOFT TEAMS OBSERVABILITY

Understand why your Microsoft Teams calls degrade.

Microsoft Teams Observability turns call, network, endpoint and Microsoft service data into clear, actionable diagnostics.

AI-assisted diagnosis of a degraded Microsoft Teams call

DEMO

See the investigation workflow in action.

Find a call, identify the degraded stream and gather the evidence required to respond or escalate.

A short introduction to Microsoft Teams Observability. A detailed demo is available for a deeper look at the investigation workflow.

FROM SYMPTOMS TO EVIDENCE

Stop guessing. Start with evidence.

The same data becomes an actionable answer for support, network and service management teams.

FIRST TICKET

Qualify the issue immediately

Find the call, participants and affected media stream without endless back-and-forth.

LIKELY CAUSE

Understand the degradation

Connect quality, endpoint, network, site and Microsoft service health in one investigation.

TARGETED ACTION

Prove where to act

Fix, escalate or demonstrate that the internal infrastructure is not responsible.

A GUIDED INVESTIGATION

From ticket to diagnosis, step by step.

A repeatable workflow turns a user complaint into technical evidence your teams can verify.

01

Find the call

Search by user, date, identifier, health status or communication type.

02

Identify the affected stream

Locate the participant and the degraded audio, video or screen-sharing stream.

03

Establish the likely cause

Analyze packet loss, jitter, latency, protocol, endpoint and connection, with AI assistance.

04

Measure the scope

Check whether the issue is isolated, concentrated at one site or correlated with a Microsoft incident.

FROM DETAIL TO TREND

A complete view of the Teams experience.

Move from one specific call to global service quality without losing the technical context needed for action.

SERVICE MANAGEMENT

A global view of quality

Track call volumes, quality, users, platforms and changes over time.

The cockpit brings operational and service-management indicators together in one place.

NETWORK

The network, site by site

Compare latency, jitter, packet loss, protocol and compliance to prioritize remediation.

Sites and subnets are tied to observed calls and their dominant causes.

END TO END

Make call paths understandable

Visualize users, sites, Microsoft relays and interconnections, including international communications.

Topology provides the context to distinguish endpoint, internal network, Internet and Microsoft service issues.

FOR YOUR TEAMS

One shared source of truth.

Each team gets the right level of detail while keeping a shared understanding of the incident.

OPS · HELPDESK

Locate at-risk sites and reduce the time needed to clear the network.

TEAMS · DIGITAL WORKPLACE

Delegate without losing control

Share investigations while retaining a consolidated view of usage and quality.

SERVICE OWNER

Manage with evidence

Track trends, affected populations and the impact of changes on service quality.

TEAMS PHONE · CONTACT CENTERS

Observe your Teams telephony too.

Extend diagnostics to PSTN calls, Direct Routing and scenarios involving call queues or auto attendants.

PSTN · PHONE SYSTEM

Usage, volumes and costs

Analyze inbound and outbound calls, duration, distribution and available cost data.

Detailed records help teams understand telephony usage and find situations that require investigation.

DIRECT ROUTING

Quality and failure causes

Track success rate, SBCs, SIP codes, call types and operational trends.

Telephony teams get a consolidated view to isolate failures and target corrective action.

Teams call queue dashboard showing call volume, answer rate, abandoned calls and agent activity.

CALL QUEUES

Queue and agent activity

Track offered, answered and abandoned calls together with agent activity and availability.

Contact center teams get shared indicators to tune queues and investigate service disruptions.

Microsoft Teams Observability collection and distribution architecture

DEPLOYMENT

Centralized collection with no endpoint agent.

The collector queries Microsoft Graph, normalizes events and enriches them with investigation context. It then distributes the data to one or more destinations.

Centralized collection

Calls, media streams, PSTN, Direct Routing and Microsoft service health.

Enriched context

User, endpoint, network, site, location and stream quality.

Open distribution

Dynatrace, Grafana, Splunk or any OpenTelemetry-compatible endpoint.

Lower maintenance

No agent to deploy and maintain on user endpoints.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What to know before you start.

Choose your platform, explore the demo or connect your own data with a trial license.

What does Microsoft Teams Observability do?

It turns Microsoft call and service data into management views and investigations that IT teams can use.

Does it replace Microsoft tools?

It complements them by making their data available inside the workflows, dashboards and observability platforms your organization already uses.

Which platforms are supported?

Dedicated experiences are available for Dynatrace, Grafana and Splunk. The collector can also export structured events to an OTLP backend.

Do we need an agent on every endpoint?

No. Collection is centralized through Microsoft Graph, with no component to deploy on each user device.

Can we evaluate the product before connecting it?

Yes. The Grafana plugin includes a demo mode with built-in scenarios, and a trial license lets you connect live data afterwards.

How do we buy or get started?

The Grafana edition is available on Grafana Marketplace. The Dynatrace edition can be purchased through AWS Marketplace or evaluated with a trial license.
