I wonder how this will impact Lync adoption in small companies...

[Mr. Analog]

It's all about connection quality I'd say, Skype group calls were pretty bad from what I remember if you had 20+ people on it (we used to use it all the time before Lync)

Not to mention screen sharing was a bit dodgy

Skype in and of itself is pretty sketchy these days. I've gotten messages over an hour late. and we were both online. It's so stupid.

Sometimes my phone gets messages before my laptop, and sometimes the laptop gets them before... and sometimes its many minutes in between.

I haven't had too many problems with video calls lately, but sheesh, they cant get the im chat working
