"The solution is easy to use and includes the ability to text message, video and voice chat, and transfer files."

"You can do meetings of up to two hundred people in a single conversation."
"The solution is stable and scalable."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"CTI, computer telephony integration, is a necessary component. It must be a part of the basic code. Currently, we need to use external connectors for call centers."

"The integration with Outlook could be improved."
"Whenever someone is using a messaging platform, the messages needs to be stored. In Skype for Business, the message will not be seen later on if you're not online. It isn't useful, in my opinion."

"The cost of Skype for Business has room for improvement."
"Sometimes Skype is slow, and we cannot use other elements of our devices while using the Skype solution."
