What to watch for

The 50–200 employee gotchas.

Don't overbuy on features you won't use. At 75 seats, the $35 Ultra tier feels like a bargain until you realize your team uses three of twelve premium features. Right-tier the deal.
Teams Phone is not a drop-in replacement for a full UCaaS platform. It's a smart cost move for knowledge workers. If you have an IVR, queue routing, or a sales team doing 200+ calls/day, get an honest evaluation first.
Annual price uplift clauses are almost always negotiable. Standard contracts permit 3–7% annual increases. We routinely get this capped at 0–2%, but you have to ask.
Implementation costs vary wildly. Complex multi-site setups with custom IVRs can run $5K–20K in professional services. Get it itemized and negotiate it into the contract where possible.
Number porting timelines can surprise you. Most ports complete in 2–4 weeks, but complex or multi-location ports with some carriers can take 6–8 weeks. Plan your cutover accordingly.
