Skype iOS has some changes I could do with out. the visual aspect of it could return to what it was and be better..
This just shows how old and inflexible you are.

I've rarely ever used Skype for business purposes. The only time I can think of that I did use it is for talking to NTG.

I don't mind S4B in terms of business use. The status functionality is enough for me. I only wish that as a business platform it didn't have the obnoxious "hidden" status.
Like you're an employee, I need to speak with you. ARE YOU THERE?

Yeah, and MQ claims it's the only thing that customers use, but I never talk to any company that has it.

I had 4 customer calls with it this week. 2 of them were vendors. People request it as an option. I would guess cause of Headphone for their desktop.

I have a very small exposure, so she might be right. I heard once of a telemarking like company that ran their employees from their employees homes. Those people used a Skype for Business account via their computer to call clients.
Outside of that, I don't know of any business using it as a primary communication method. -

Not that I can see why this really matters - but are these customers still making calls over the PSTN? or via direct
SIP to SIPSkype to Skype or S4B to S4B connections with you/others?Edited for correctness and actual question.

I'm not sure where you are going. But the conversation was that customers use Skype for calling long distance. Every company everywhere still uses the PSTN, but lots like to avoid it especially for desktop sharing since that doesn't support that. Skype doesn't do SIP, so if the point was that they were making Skype calls, it means by definition no SIP or PSTN.
