Bye bye Universal Hosted Skype for Business, you were great

A new milestone in the Universal Cloud; we have now reached the end of the Skype for Business era. After the succesfull migration of our SfB customers to Teams, we will shut down the last Skype for Business servers later this month. Skype was good, but Teams is so much better!

From Office Communications Server to Lync to Skype for Business to Teams. That is our long history with Microsoft  communications services. From our perspective, with Teams, the real game has just started. 

Where Office Communications brought chat to the communication system, Lync made it possible to use it as a telephony system and Skype for Business brought the advanced features such as response groups and conferencing features. But of all that looks like nothing at all, compared to the power of Teams. But still, Skype for Business has been robust, powerful, steady and enabled us to interact with contact center solutions like AnyWhere365. Hundreds of organizations were facilitated by our hosted Skype for Business service. The 100% uptime will end now. Thank you Skype for Business, you have been great. 

Hi Teams, you are even greater

The response of customers that migrated to Teams Phone System is amazing. The intuitive client, the solid performance, the powerful document management options and the integration with other Office apps like OneDrive, Viva Connection, Exchange and SharePoint makes Teams a powerhouse. But where it really gets even greater is by the 3rd party integration options. This is where the Universal fun really starts.
