Which one do I need?

Which option is faster to deploy?

Operator Connect is typically faster — often just days. It's managed through the Teams Admin Center with less infrastructure to configure.

Do I need advanced telecom equipment?

With Operator Connect, no — the carrier handles it. With Direct Routing, you'll need an SBC (Session Border Controller) to connect to the PSTN.

Can I switch between them later?

Yes. Many organizations start with Operator Connect for speed, then migrate to Direct Routing as needs grow. Never Busy supports both.
