You read my mind, while we are 99% an open source organisation we have a couple of managers that are strangely MS centric, if it has their stamp on it - it has to be 'enterprise grade' and there for the only serious option for them.
- ygra 11y agoBut Skype is a consumer offering. The "enterprise-grade" product is Skype for Business (formerly Lync), which is a completely different product and codebase (and thus, presumably, with completely different bugs and annoyances).
- omegaham 11y agoI actually don't mind Lync where I work, although I exclusively use it for IMing and sending pictures of chips back and forth. I'd personally prefer an IRC chat that everyone is logged into, but my guess is that the less technologically-inclined folks on my shift would definitely prefer Lync, and it's fine for my purposes anyway.
- crazyabtliv 11y agoNot true. Lync is a piece of shit. My current company uses Sky pe for business and guess what is the most annoying aspect: messages don't reach the other end sometimes!!!!! It also freezes, a LOT. We finally forced our manager to let us use Slack and we love it.
