ZIRO Platform for Microsoft (ZPM) has been recognized by TMCnet as a recipient of the prestigious 2025 Unified Communications Product of the Year Award.  This recognition highlights our commitment to transforming Microsoft Teams provisioning with solutions that prioritize both simplicity and functionality. 

Revolutionizing Microsoft Teams Management

In today’s fast-paced digital workplace, IT teams face mounting pressure to deploy, manage, and optimize Microsoft Teams environments quickly and efficiently.  

The ZIRO Platform for Microsoft was designed from the ground up to address these challenges by combining intuitive usability with enterprise-grade capabilities. 

“This award validates our team’s relentless focus on creating provisioning tools that IT administrators actually enjoy using,” said Stephen Karachinsky, CEO at ZIRO. “We’ve built ZPM to eliminate the complexity that has traditionally plagued Teams administration without sacrificing the control and flexibility that enterprise organizations demand.”

Why ZPM Stands Out in the Unified Communications Landscape 

The judges at TMCnet recognized what our customers have already discovered, ZPM brings something unique to Microsoft Teams administration: 

1. Unparalleled Ease of Use 

While many enterprises’ tools sacrifice usability for functionality, ZPM proves you can have both. Our intuitive interface dramatically reduces the learning curve, allowing IT teams to become productive immediately.  

Complex provisioning tasks like configuring user policies, managing Teams channels, setting up call queues, creating auto attendants, and implementing compliance settings that once required specialized PowerShell knowledge and multiple administrative steps can now be completed in minutes through ZPM’s streamlined workflows and visual controls. 

2. Role-Based Access with Customizable Helpdesk Experience 

ZPM’s sophisticated role-based access control system allows organizations to precisely define who can do what within their Teams environment.  

What sets ZPM apart is how this powerful capability is paired with a fully customizable helpdesk experience. 

Administrators can tailor the interface and permission sets for helpdesk users, ensuring they have exactly the right level of access for their responsibilities, no more, no less. This approach maintains security and governance while empowering frontline IT staff to resolve issues quickly without escalation. 

3. Modern Work Partner 

ZIRO is a certified Microsoft Solutions Partner and specializes in Teams Phone solutions. Look for us on the Microsoft Marketplace. 

4. Advanced Automation for Migration 

ZPM’s most transformative feature is its comprehensive bulk provisioning capabilities. This allows organizations to migrate legacy PBX users to Microsoft Teams quickly and efficiently. 

You already know manual provisioning and user migration isn’t sustainable. 

So why not look into a solution that helps your team work faster and reduce costs?

Part of Broader Excellence in Unified Communications 

The 2025 Unified Communications Product of the Year Award, now in its 18th year, represents TMCnet’s recognition of the most innovative solutions driving business communications forward. ZIRO joins an elite group of technology providers who are shaping the future of how organizations communicate and collaborate. 

“On behalf of TMC, I’m honoured to recognize the 2025 Unified Communications Product of the Year Award winners,” said Rich Tehrani, CEO of TMC. 

“These companies are not just adapting to the rapidly evolving communications landscape—they’re shaping its future. Their cutting-edge solutions are solving real business challenges and raising the bar for what’s possible in unified communications. We look forward to following their continued growth and impact in the year ahead,” added Tehrani. 

Looking Ahead: The Future of Teams Provisioning 

As organizations increasingly depend on Teams as their central collaboration hub, the need for simplified yet powerful administration tools will only grow. 

We’re already working on the next generation of ZPM features, focusing on expanding our automation capabilities, enhancing governance controls, and creating even more intuitive user experiences. Our goal remains constant: to make Teams administration so straightforward that organizations can focus on innovation rather than configuration.
