Good for instant messages, but could do more

Reviewed 2 years ago

At our company, we use Skype for a variety of reasons. We use it to communicate with clients and suppliers who are located overseas, to hold conference calls, and to provide training to employees. Skype is an affordable way to keep in touch with people around the world, and it has proved to be a valuable tool for our business. That being said, when Slack was introduced, Skype became more of a tool for instant messages. Slack is now our primary means of communication, or Zoom, but Skype remains a valuable asset for us for those long distance calls and becuase of it;s tenure - most people have an account and can jump on.

Pros

Overall it is a cost-effective way to communicate with clients, suppliers, and employees who are located in different parts of the world. The software also offers a number of features that can be used for conferencing, training, and collaboration.

Cons

The software can be glitchy, and sometimes calls will drop or audio quality will be poor. Another downside is that Skype is not perfect for sharing files and documents or offering a media library which means other channels end up being used.

Skype review

Reviewed 2 years ago

I used skype when I was arranging consultations at the university, I answered exams through the skype application. I made conference calls with my friends. The video quality of the call is excellent, it's easy to find new contacts, many people use it. I would love to be able to send larger documents or videos via Skype

Pros

Real time chat ,realtime notifications, conferencing are the most useful feature.Very easy use of aplication with clear explanation.

Cons

File sharing can be better.I would like to share bigger files in skype.
