It's a turrible day. Just turrible!

Migrating to Skype for Business Online. It's just terrible.
Anyone else doing something they don't want to do lately? Anything goes...
-
I'm so sorry for your loss.

Migrated away from what?

Something truly terrible if Skype for Business is the alternative.

We have SfB at work. I don't manage it, but the integration with Sharepoint and Outlook is kind of nice. I haven't used it other than to message one person though, so it may be very lacking in other places.
-
Yeah it's not the greatest tool out there, but the integration with Outlook is pretty awesome. Plus if you have businesses you deal with that use it you can incorporation the SfB systems so you can message across domains.

We never found anyone that would do that and the functionality was so poor that we gave up on it.
-
We have SfB and don't use it. That's how bad it is. Even for free, it's not worth using.
-
We actually have 1 client that we're setup with because we are so heavily involved in the day to day with the client. Not sure how the conversation went down, but I can find them from my SfB account.

Ya it was corporate IT that set it up. I've literally sent like 4 messages in it, but I can see everyone's status in SP and Outlook.
I don't know if you can see anything else or just their status. I haven't played with it.

Returning to work today after vacation 100% counts.
Honestly though today has been awesome so I really can't complain too much

It would put the company I work for in a bad spot should someone run across this thread.

I could discuss it, but if the company got in trouble and it linked back to me leaking the information, I'd lose my job. Pretty harsh state to work in if you work in the private sector. You can get fired for anything here.
It really comes down to poor ethics over a decade. I have been here since August and we finally got things on a more ethical level.

Sorry, no. It's more of a wash than feeling bad or good.
The compromise was to purchase Skype for Business after I had setup RocketChat & OpenFire inside of a week. That got shut down in about 10 seconds after it was decided we'd use SfB. Two of us threatened to quit if they didn't make a move, just so happened that that move was toward SfB.
-
Either OpenFire or RocketChat would have worked out great. Way better than SfB in fact.

Well that sounds like a good thing.

So we can learn from your experience - what was the driver to go to SfB? Did anyone stop to read a review of it? EEeeuuuuggghhhhhhhhhhh
