    @Microsoft Instead of an apology for the #Teams outage, can you provide a on premise solution for a Hybrid approach? I want to switch from Skype for business, but it is hard to migrate to a cloud service that has an annual outage without a failover solution. #HybridCloud

    @MKressmark @StaleHansen @JankeSkanke We are trying to deploy MTR, but during our testing on-prem sync accounts are not able sign-in, however we can able to login with cloud account. Currently, we have Skype hybrid mode, but most the users already moved to Teams. Is there any DNS requirements for Hybrid mode?

    @shkoagha In my experience Skype has been very inconsistent, it’s riddled with network connectivity and database connection issues, it used to be the best though, but these days i don’t really think it is anywhere near zoom or google meet

  • StacyRalph2 Stacy Ralph (@StacyRalph2) reported

    @tommangan @LSchmitt_TAAWTS Yes, I’ve seen it which is why I turned down staff offers. Global companies I freelanced for had meetings scheduled with teams in Singapore, Spain, etc., staff had to attend via Skype at all hours. I got paid for my extra time. They got same raise and crappy bonus every year.
