Overall Satisfaction with Skype

We use Skype to communicate and hold global meetings with each other while abroad.
  • Global video-calls
  • Making it easier to communicate with time changes
  • Free or cheaper video calls
  • Making an account takes a long time
  • Charges for some calls
  • Webex is used more
  • Helps communicate globally
  • Helps make sales
  • Helps close business deals
Webex works well for big group meetings and is free. WebEx does not require purchasing and has many great features for presenting. Skype is more well known in other countries.
It works well and it's secure but you have to pay to use Skype globally.
