Evaluation Lessons Learned
I was not interested in the choice of product that took place before my hiring in the company (April 2012). So, I don't know what could have been done differently when evaluating the software.
Evaluation Lessons Learned
There is not anything that i would change about my company's decision on having Skype for Business as our main communication tool. Whoever though about which platform we are going to use did a great job and a great research, my whole organization 10.000+ people are satisfied with how Skype for Business under different scenarios performs.
Evaluation Lessons Learned
I was not personally involved with the purchase evaluation of skype for business and therefore I can not accurately assess what changes I would have made to the selection process. I will say that the product is a excellent, integrates excellently with other essential tools, and has become an integral tool for the organization.

About Skype for Business
Skype for Business is part of Microsoft’s 365 suite offering and provides an IP
PBX for online messaging and web conferencing. It includes features such as
live streaming meetings, dialing into conference calls, and the ability to
make, receive, and transfer calls via a computer or mobile device. It offers a
free version of its service with basic features, and a licensed version that
offers its full suite of tools.
Previously, Skype for Business integrated with Skype for Business Server to
provide a complete, unified communications offering. However, in 2018, Microsoft
announced that Microsoft
Teams would eventually replace Skype for Business.
Existing users of Skype for Business can continue to utilize its software, and it is available for download, however, Microsoft itself recommends that potential users looking to work with Skype for Business, should purchase Microsoft Teams instead. Features of Skype for Business are being incorporated into Microsoft Teams, and Microsoft Teams includes many features that Skype for Business does not. However, users of Skype for Business can still use it alongside Microsoft Teams.
Skype for Business’s key features remain, such as its support for PSTN conferencing, video and audio recording of calls, and screen and computer access tool. Its support of PSTN allows for its users to connect their conference calls using their phones. These same calls can support up to 250 users.
