Are you familiar with anyContact innoACD from SNcom? The call/contact center solution for intelligent call management!
A customer is calling because the system is down, and ends up with the right point of contact straight away. No call transfer, no waiting queue, thanks to anyContact innoACD: A call center & contact center solution that redirects incoming calls based on the skills, availability and workload of your agents.
Unlike traditional waiting queue solutions, skill-based routing ensures that every call goes directly to the person with the right expertise. This enables faster problem solving, more efficient processes, and happier customers.
Key Benefits of anyContact innoACD:
Skill-based routing instead of random or collective phone ringing. The app transfers calls based on defined skills of the agents. These skills or areas of expertise may include "IT support", "product A", "key account sales", etc.
"RONA" prevents lost calls: If an agent is in a meeting or unavailable, the call remains in the queue and is then redistributed (not ready / RONA).
No additional infrastructure required: The solution runs as an app on the innovaphone App Platform – without an external server or cloud.
Real-time overview for team leaders and employees: With special apps for agents and admins, you can keep track of queues, availability, and call statistics.
Licensing based on the number of concurrent agents (concurrent model): You only pay for the number of agents who are actively participating—ideal for changing teams or shift work.
anyContact innoACD for Businesses:
Increased availability & quality: Calls are routed to the right agent—directly, without any detours and without causing disappointment.
Better utilization: Workloads are distributed fairly, and agents with specialized skills are deployed in a targeted manner.
Fewer lost calls: Thanks to "RONA", no call is left hanging.
Fast implementation: Minimal effort – the app can be up and running at short notice.
Cost control: No major infrastructure setup – clear licensing structure.
anyContact innoACD is the ideal tool for:
Support teams with differing qualifications (IT, sales, post-sales)
Businesses with changing agents, part-time, shift work
Companies working with the innovaphone platform, requiring a high-performance ACD / contact center solution without complex additional servers

Highlights of the Current Service Release V15r1 SR6
Connector for M365 – Seamless Integration of Microsoft 365 and innovaphone PBX
The Connector for M365 makes your business communication even smarter. The app connects Microsoft Teams with innovaphone myApps, ensuring automatic synchronization of presence and call status. All participants remain available at all times – without annoying double ringing, and without losing information.
Why is this Connector Essential?
If you use Microsoft 365 with Exchange online, you should keep in mind October 2026. On October 1st, 2026, Microsoft will discontinue the EWS protocol used to date. This means following: The Calendar App will no longer work for the calendar presence synchronization between Microsoft 365 and innovaphone myApps. The Connector for M365 provides a solution because it is based on the modern Microsoft Graph API. It and makes calendar integration and presence synchronization future-proof.
Please note: For users of Exchange on premises, the Calendar App remains the appropriate solution for synchronizing calendar presence.
Your Advantages with the Connector for M365:
Synchronized presence status: Whether you are in a Teams meeting or in a myApps call – both systems know when you are busy
Seamless call management: Call forwarding and rules apply automatically, external callers are not left without response
Line state synchronization: The phone status is also synchronized between both platforms
Future-proof thanks to Graph API: Calendar integration and presence sync remain fully functional after October 2026
More convenience (from version 16r1): Contact search and phone number resolution directly in the connector (applies to apps, does not apply to IP phones and the innovaphone PBX)
Practical Example:
An employee is participating in a Teams call. A customer is trying to call the respective innovaphone extension of this employee at the same time. Without the connector, the telephone will keep ringing and ringing, the customer may even end up in the waiting queue. With the Connector for M365, the system will automatically recognize that the extension is “busy”. The call will be forwarded in accordance with the predefined rules – the customer will receive the service, and the employee can participate in the online meeting without any interruption.
Conclusion
The Connector for M365 is more than just an add-on; it is the key to smooth communication between Microsoft 365 and myApps. By 2026 at the latest, it will be available to Exchange Online users who synchronize their calendar entries.
