Hey Alan.

So we absolutely have on the roadmap a lightweight set of ATAs that can be used for analog devices. Essentially the ATA will log into Office 365 like an IP phone does today. Don't have a timeframe for availability at this time though. So for the time being I suggest keeping the analog phones in place while you migrate users over to Cloud PBX and PSTN Calling.

Thanks!

    nomorephones If Analog phones will be able to register to SfB Online wouldn't we be able to track it here https://products.office.com/en-us/business/office-365-roadmap?filters= ?
    I can't find anything so if possible can you try to publish it on the roadmap so we don't need to hunt you all the time for an update?
    
    Thanks
