Skype and Office 365

Skype for Business will be fully functional in the Cloud. Microsoft is partnering with big telecommunications companies in order to make this possible. Their plan is to integrate Enterprise Voice into Office 365, so that Customers will be able to call people on any phone.

Skype for Business is coming in April and it will be available to Office 365 customers, as well as for on-premises deployments. You’ll be able to connect with your colleagues and with anyone who has a Skype account.

Lync will become Skype for Business officially on March 18^th. Rebranding will bring a new modern UI with elements from Lync and Skype and it will include well known Skype icons for calling and call monitor, possibility of calling any Skype user on any device, etc.

“A new client experience, new server release, and updates to the service in Office 365.”

Users with on-premises Lync servers will have to upgrade Skype for Business manually. For Office 365 for business customers, it will be done automatically.
