@TheCraigEvans At my previous studio I was always the person who got called into the room (not IT) to help with some of these calls and every time it seemed like the worst of it was WebEx or Skype.

@drraja_ @gmcuk too preponed my exam to help facilitate august recruitment so I was wondering if the PLAB2 can be taken earlier than June via skype & if I (or people like me, with experience in critical care or A&E) pass, we can join early and help the NHS when it needs doctors the most.

@dwvcd @WashletJP Cisco Webex and Bluejeans seemed to be the powerhouses up until a few years ago. Cheapskates who were cool with terrible audio quality in exchange for letting Google know your habits used Hangouts. Plus Skype Meetings, etc.

@GoldenDublin @Independent_ie Good. At least we have Skype and iChat. I’m down with my parents and here for the foreseeable. I miss the music too. Hopefully we’ll get through this and back to some semblance of reality.

I just had the worst experience with @skype. It made me login in @Microsoft 15x. No wonder Gates stepped down. So glad I bought stock in @apple instead of your subpar organization.

bit mainly Microsoft's obsession with making you have a Microsoft account is what drove me away. To this day I find it a pain if someone wants me to login to Skype.

Most people aware of the tricks ISPs use to prioritize speedtest traffic on their network. SAAS providers should operate their own endpoint service that ties into a master test. A user goes to one site to perform bandwidth and latency tests to Zoom, Skype, Hangouts, VOIP, etc.

@DellCares This is what I got from @Dell for support: "Since the issue is only with team viewer, I suspect an issue with that application as the webcam works on Skype. For this, you will have to contact our advance software paid support team on 1800-425-0088 for further assistance."
