@Ms_LebouxM @MthembuMabutho Thokoza Gogo. Within our organization we use Microsoft Teams and I personally prefer it over Zoom any day. I believe that Microsoft decided to market Teams more over than Skype hence why most people didn’t even mention Skype as a whole, there were a lot of issues with it

@asam100 @HSELive I would be in full agreement of everything you have said. We have to help each other out. But public hospital also should be doing this no assessment can be made over a phone or Skype. A Dr needs to examine which is important. Things will be missed.

@baxiabhishek @PranavDixit Hey Skype for Business is really behaving badly. Connect issues... I'm waiting in the lobby and it shows only me and all others find the same thing. Doesn't happen within the same company though. We've switched to Teams and Microsoft is urging biz users to switch.

@kirby_pj We had a CCMC today. All parties joined Skype conference save for the judge as the @HMCTSgovuk internet went down. Judge tried to join on a phone and it didn’t work. It’s been adjourned .... well you did ask the question!

@DavidDTSS That’s cause Microsoft’s institutional culture is Windows, Office & Azure centric, they have no taste or acumen for usability or design & corporate inertia evidently let Skype die on the vine, but Zoom is a terrible company & their product is a multiple vector security risk.

@carlosmiguelsns A little story. When my son 14 started online schooling the teachers soon banned the use of chat in zoom and Skype. So what did the kids do They all hopped on discord where the teacher had no visibility. So the problem remained but was worse.

@Skype My issue with it is not the ability to change it, but at least customize it when first creating your account. Because my Microsoft account was created when setting up a new laptop, my id is autogenerated and is the oddest random thing ever...

@markrmcqueen @Microsoft @Skype It works but like all MS products the GUI is 10 years behind and prone to crashes. Zoom is fixing its security issues and is a better platform for VTC. Not a sub for Teams to be sure but superior for conferencing
