Overall Satisfaction with Skype for Business (formerly Lync), now part of Microsoft Teams
[My company] has been using Skype for Business for all the conversation, meetings, video conferencing, internal chit-chat etc. [It] is one of the best web and video conferencing software I have [ever] used. [...]
- Best tool for conversation within the whole organization.
- Video conferencing is very amazing.
- Very very user-friendly.
- Sharing documents over chat is very simple.
- You can create your groups in a very proper way.
- Very simple to use.
- No additional training is required to use this tool.
- You can show your status as available, busy, away, do not disturb, In [the] meeting, etc as your convenient and work.
- We can share our screen and can take control as well of others.
- We can show only one window to the others and can do our other works in other windows at the same time.
- Sometimes if [...] you have another window, like watching any video [and] you don't touch the mouse, [...] Skype will show your status as away[...].
- Sometimes it takes [a] little more time to log in.
- Meeting creation and sending [invitations are a] little tough.
- Your status will show [as] 'away' just after 4-5 minutes if you don't touch the mouse, no matter your window is open and watching something else. It is its biggest con.
I had used "IBM Sametime" [at] my last company. It was also a good tool but as good as Skype for Business is. Skype for Business has many features and very user-friendly but IBM Sametime [did] not [have as] many features. Sharing screen and taking command is one of the best features of Skype for Business and we can also share the only screen we want to share and parallel we can do the others works as well.
