I didn't mind skype. I was actually sad to see it go. But I did switch to Discord myself.
ОтветитьSkype is business as usual but very expensive in 2023.
ОтветитьI still use Skype for my business phone. It works very well.
ОтветитьI never gave Skye a chance due to a little hype aversion and a lack of any real need for it. By the time I did have a need for teleconferencing, the backlash to Skype had reached the same pitch as the hype, and there were plenty of alternatives. I've tried all the alternatives and can't say that dislike any of them. I do like compartmentalization between my work (Teams), my school (Zoom) and my gaming (Discord), and never want for them to meet on one platform.
ОтветитьTeams is growing just because corporates are pushing it down our throats. Teams is a complete piece of garbage. Like...a total piece of garbage. I would rather use Yahoo Messenger than teams.
ОтветитьMicrosoft's good old Austin Power's villain strategy of EEE, "Embrace, extend, and extinguish"
ОтветитьSkype sucked and Teams sucks, they both have bad UI, and the lag is gag worthy. The end 😂😂
ОтветитьSo basically one of the main reasons Bill Gates created that pandemic is to push Teams up? LOL
ОтветитьI used to use Skype on my desktop all the time back in 2008-2010 but then had no reason with a smart phone anymore. I honestly didn't know what"Zoom"was until the pandemic.
ОтветитьApple bought beats for the technology also.
ОтветитьGreat video...m
ОтветитьYou basically gave me nightmare twice, using MS Team and iPhone 😶🌫
ОтветитьStory as old as tech: company A buys out Company B. Company A shuts down Company B. Company A releases new products using IP (intellectual property, not internet protocol) from buyout of company B.
Ответитьthe question is why MS drop their own MSN.
ОтветитьAsia has had alternates for decades.
ОтветитьWho hates the incredibly confusing Teams interface? It's SO overcomplicated, while making functionality really hard to find or just poorly designed. This POS is only successful because it's part of Office and Windows.
ОтветитьI can't imagine what technology that Skype had that Microsoft couldn't have developed from scratch for far, far less than $8B. And they already had Lync! It was a terrible acquisition.
ОтветитьMy biggest gripe about teams is you cannot share a file with different people in different chats easily. It seems forcing to use the same copy of the file to share with everyone.. I dont need that enforcement. I take a screenshot image share it with few guys and I dont need it later. However what happens is after the first time sharing, when I try to attach the same screenshot image file to another person, teams will simply refuse, no message, nothing, you keep trying to attach the file, it will simply ignore it.
ОтветитьMy biggest issue with Skype was how when you'd start a call, its quality would be fantastic, but as it progressed the quality would drop and drop with no other way of fixing it but to restart the call entirely, which was a pain for group chats.
ОтветитьThey refused to take payments from my credit card, and no one could explain why… customer service didn’t have a phone number, just a chat service. It was like they were allergic to money.
ОтветитьGave me PTSD with the alarms. Thought I was in a call while doing chores 😅
ОтветитьThere are two major mistakes here: 1) Microsoft has not ditched consumer markets (B2B has always been the larger source of revenue) 2) the video mixes Skype and Skype for Business (formerly know as Lync). These were two separate services for different customer groups. Teams is the successor of the latter.
ОтветитьIm stil in bed sorta snoozing. When that alarm went of I really felt it.
ОтветитьAlso: Zoom did never innovate nor extend its features. It has been implemented and stayed as it was for years, still featuring a all but non-existent chat solution. Seems as if Zoom simply wanted to cash as much as possible without investing into the software.
ОтветитьI'm still using Skype and Yahoo email old habits die hard
ОтветитьTeams is simply amazing to use with full integration with Microsoft 365.
ОтветитьMicrosoft most likely bought the IP behind Skype for other products. Seems like teams replaced Skype.
ОтветитьMy company still uses Skype for some reason and man it sucks so much. Calls get triggered after 30 seconds of pressing the button, voice messages sometime omit the first few seconds and its very slow.
ОтветитьI remember when Skype was available on the PSP. That’s how i first found out about it.
ОтветитьAs IT profesiaonal seeing these changes on the market from first row, I'm impressed by the precision of story line here. Skype for business is not yet dead and there's still some revenue for Microsoft coming from it. I even seen a company that is in using both Skype for Business and Teams at the same time (and letting employees decide which one) as some sort "Neverending" switch period.
ОтветитьI heard somewhere that microsoft didn’t buy skype for the sake of buying skype but instead for the technology that skype revolutionised and that they earned a lot of money on licensing that tech to companies like zoom
ОтветитьThere are two BIG points missing here:
Skype works very well until was acquired by Microsoft, in that point of time skype apps on mobile become awful, slow, bloated, they force to use microsoft account and destroy the simple interface for the ugly one slow and bloated. Linux support was kind of dropped since acquisition.
Teams is not a good software, I'm not sure why companies are using it, maybe is cheap (?), I use it in a daily basis because of my job, is slow, bloated, uses electron ergo uses a stupid amount of RAM.
Servers up-time and stability is one of the worst I ever seen: Calls without audio, or video, or rooms you cannot enter, problems with cross region connections, among other multiple connectivity issues.
Lack of features in all platforms, Linux client is ancient vs the rest, android client has reply function many months after the rest, web client las month was updated to be the same feature set as desktop.
There is no app I hate more than Microsoft Teams.
ОтветитьMicrosoft has a history of acquire and extinguish the competition, then add features into their product.
ОтветитьCan you make a video on how social media apps gain their user base from scratch?
ОтветитьDoesn't matter if it's Skype, Teams, Zoom, or Slack. It's still work at the end of the day.
ОтветитьI have been working online for over 14 years. I was an early adopter of Zoom, within their first 12 months. I currently use Skype. When I say I teach online Zoom and others launch their sales reps on me like I am a high school teacher. I don't do that. They have missed out on an entire area of professional teaching that pre-existed COVID. I don't make 30K, I make 400 to 500K just on the tutoring side of what I do. And I don't need classroom software or interactive whiteboards. I don't use a laptop with a Bamboo tablet, I use a $5k workstation with a Wacom Cintiq. None of the online meeting utilities effectively address those of us independently working outside the corporate or university environment pulling in 7 figures. They have no idea what we need. Only Skype works for this...not Teams...or any other. Is it a niche market? Sure. But much more lucrative than any other. Gamers, schools, and institutions are actually nothing. They are trivial. Zoom sucks, Teams sucks, for those of use outside the corporate and university environment. And we are legion. We were the gig economy before there was a gig economy. And I still don't pay for Skype! LOL! It's amazing how narrow the corporate mind can be even when infused with more youthful thinking about more modern ecosystems. Then can't even imagine reality. None of the other solutions actually approach being a solutions. If MS is smart, they will grow what Skype is, not Teams. COVID didn't weaken that, it strengthened it. Integration with MS products is nothing in my industry/business.
ОтветитьYou kept talking about Skype For Business as it was a version of Skype but I'm pretty sure that it was Lync rebrunded.
ОтветитьTeams sucks so much too honestly.
ОтветитьI wonder if this is just another way to move money around?
ОтветитьMicrosoft kept tinkering with then UI. They removed useful features and called in an "enhancement". Microsoft is great at lip service ("we value your feedback"), but Skype became irrelevant when better software came along (from those that do listen to their users). Nowadays, who would ever use Skype to make a call?
ОтветитьFacetime? Lol. Telegram, Discord and only then maybe watsup :)
ОтветитьNo wonder why everyone was panicking when Microsoft almost acquired discord
ОтветитьI never hated old technology, rather I becomes sad if something I was using becomes old, unpopular and repressed by new, such: Messenger over Polish Gadu-Gadu, Discord/Teamspeak over Skype, Facebook over Polish Our Class and older MySpace, here only Tumblr is still working old social media website. If other people would stay using old technology, I would also stay, I used Windows Phone 7 and later 8, 8.1 and Mobile 10, and I'm very sad that this system development/maintenece was discontinued :(
ОтветитьWe were early users of Skype and we were so impressed with how the Skype services saved us hundred of dollars of overseas phone bill every month when our overseas sales people wee calling their clients all over the world. For those with Skype accounts on both ends, the Skype call was even free. Charges only applied when you called a physical phone number.
ОтветитьSkype and Teams have one massive advantage to Zoom: You don't have to do "meetings", you can call people individually like with FaceTime/Whatsapp as well.
ОтветитьI loved skype for business, I memorised all the emoji codes and sent them all day like there is no tomorrow. Other than this, it was crap.
ОтветитьI hate Teams. Thankfully, our organization uses Slack for all communication, and Teams - only for calendar meetings.
Skype itself was nice for the early to mid 2000s, but Facebook Messenger got it mortally wounded, with the other messaging apps people then used to flee Messenger (Telegram, Viber, WhatsApp) proceeding to deliver the coup de gras.
