Anywhere365 is a must have for corporate world

5.0 last year

Comments: Overall it's a great support tool. I really depend on it.

Pros:

I like the Azure integration in Anywhere365. we often develop and deploy cloud based web applications. Most of the time it's not straightforward. Support from Anywhere365 comes in handy during deployment difficulties. We often get very quick support which help us avoid any major roadblocks.

Cons:

Sometimes the call log seems a bit buggy.

Cons:

Some days back I got the bluff call on skype it was a name written bI and it was not shown in the chats and chats history logs. I tried to search the user but the user was not found. It was shown in phone call history but not in the skype calls. Some time calling does not work. I have to restart my computer or quit and start skype to make calls on skype. I tried to uninstall it, but it reappears automatically.

Skype for Business Review

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: It was a pleasant experience, especially the instant texting.
Otherwise, there is superior software available that offers far more modern technology to fulfill the needs of this pandemic time.

Pros:

It's fantastic when it's utilized throughout the company since it allows you to rapidly locate other users; nevertheless, that's the only benefit.

Cons:

The video call and share screen capabilities aren't fantastic; they work intermittently. Dates are utilized to break up conversation history, and recalling the date of the talk I'm searching for is difficult.

The First But Definitely Not The Last

4.0 3 years ago

Comments: Anywhere365 is overall a nice chat system which meets basic requirements properly. If navigation and grouping could be improved, this software would be much more useful but till some big updates are made, I'll mosey my way over to MS Teams.

Pros:

The overall experience using this software is decent. If basic requirements are enough to satisfy, then Skype is the right software. I really appreciate that Skype makes it easy for people connect globally and quickly.

Cons:

More than any other software of its kind, Skype is always lagging and it drives me up a wall. It'll happen in the worst times too where everything will freeze and the only way to fix it is by ending the task via Task Manager. Doing so makes you close all your chats and then you have nothing. Losing chats is the biggest turn off about this product.

Anywhere365 perfect solution for all types of integrated communication

4.0 2 years ago

Pros:

I have been using Anywhere365 for more than a year now. I like the call queuing up facility, which is very convenient. Further integration with other collaboration tools like MS teams and Zoom is very convenient, which makes Anywhere365 more robust and efficient.

Cons:

The cost is a little higher compared to similar networking and collaboration tools. I did not like the interface it is much wordy over there. It can have more graphics and colour to make it look more lively.

back to Skype

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: I like to talk to my sister in Germany regularly. It's nice to see her face and hear her voice. I have friends who I like to talk with every week. I tried using Zoom, but it's too complicated. You have to set up a meeting then hope they see the notification. Usually, they don't. The quality of the calls has gotten a lot better in the past few months. If you've used Skype before, you should try it again. It's simpler, easy and high quality. I'm sticking with it from now on.

Pros:

With Skype you just call and if they're there, they answer. If not, you can try reaching them on their phone.

Cons:

They seem to have fixed the minor problems that used to exist

Good office communicator

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: It's good so far. But not as efficient as other office communicators. Needs improvement

Pros:

It loads so fast. We can mark our favorite contacts. Easy to start a group conversation. Can easily add a participant to the conversation

Sometimes the time of the conversation is not correct. Once we leave a group conversation by mistake, we can't rejoin the conversation until a existing participate adds us

Is Skype Still Relevant?

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: Great tool for quick conversations between team members!

Pros:

I have used Skype for many years with different companies. My current employer is transitioning to Microsoft Teams and retiring Skype. There are things that I like with both platforms. I do not have the IT knowledge to know why we are dumping Skype. Is the technology still relevant?

Cons:

Other than some spotty connections years ago, I have no complaints about using the Skype platform.

It's overly simple in its features and capabilties.

Easily Accessible and Prompt Way to Communicate

3.0 3 years ago

Comments: I will love to switch to better quality software as I believe that there is a lot of space for improvement over here.

Pros:

Skype for business is a very useful tool to communicate with office colleagues and clients. It is easily accessible and user-friendly. I like it as it provides all the notifications of users' communications. I can call my international clients and receive notifications on pc too while working in the office.

Cons:

Lags while connecting groups of people. It is unstable. As far as you have fewer people in a group it's ok but we start experiencing issues like lags, delays, and files accessibility issues as soon as more people start joining the groups.
