Microsoft has acquired technology assets underlying the UC Commander product suite from Event Zero, a provider of management software for Skype for Business Online. This acquisition will allow Microsoft to expand and improve the built-in management tools for Skype for Business, sas the company tries to deliver an enterprise-grade communications solution at global scale with Office 365. Event Zero will continue to service its customers and partners.

Today, customers of Microsoft's calling and conferencing services can use the Office 365 administration center to acquire and assign phone numbers to their users in minutes, view reports of audio and video conferencing usage, and quickly access aggregated call quality information using our Call Quality Dashboard. In the future, using the technology acquired today, Microsoft will be able to add diagnostics and troubleshooting capabilities with even more extensive reporting and analytics for online audio, video conferencing and media streams — all within a unified management and admin system.
