Overall Satisfaction with Skype for Business

It is being used by the whole organization for quick private or team communications between employees, at all levels, everyday.

Pros

  • Allows for team chats
  • Allows for saving groups of contacts
  • Interacts with other business tools like Outlook (status changes dynamically depending on your schedule)

Cons

  • The interface is very streamlined and basic.
  • It helps in recovering information, if urgent and necessary, in a quicker way than normal email communication.
  • It allows for group communication to be sent instantly (for those last minute meetings or important updates you need to be informed about ASAP).
  • Allows for personal communications between employees (ask for help, for instance).
  • Overall gives me a sense of community, within the company, that other communication tools available do not.
  • None
I have not used any other similar tool in the past in a work environment. I could notice the difference having access to this tool makes when compared to not having it available.
For quick personal or team communication and interactions with other tools it is incredibly well suited, you can be in touch with anyone, if need be, right away. I cannot think of any scenario in which using Skype for business would be inappropriate really. It's a really good and versatile tool. It adds a personal touch to the communications between employees.
