No Extra Fees
No Extra Fees
AskCody does not charge an extra fee to create a connection to Teams, because it already exists without creating a unique app. Most other meeting management systems are not built into Exchange, which means they create an app to integrate their own platform to Teams. This app usually has an extra fee associated.
WHY ASKCODY INTERACTS NATIVELY WITH TEAMS?
By its very core AskCody is native to Microsoft being built on Exchange Web Services (EWS). Because the AskCody Platform is built on a Microsoft foundation it natively interacts with: Exchange, Teams, Outlook, and Power-Bi.
