My previous 2 companies used Slack. Now I use a monstrosity called “Skype for business” and it’s a totally unusable mess. The UI is terrible and it doesn’t keep history of conversations properly. If you close the chat window with a person the history is lost forever. Slacks keeps the history. Slack guys can you please kill Skype for business and wipe it out from the face of the earth. Please!
Teams suck
Skype for Business (and now Teams) is not made for you. It's made for your IT Admin. So yes, it's terrible.
Skype for business sucks big time
Skype for Business is fine if you’ve got 16Gb of RAM and don’t code.
No. It’s not. Even with 32GB RAM and 16 cores it still sucks. Disclaimer: My views do not necessarily reflect those of my employer. Not only does it crash for no reason, but it loses messages and the screen sharing never works, or when it does, the audio stops working.
If we’re being honest, both slack and Skype suck. Slack will somehow utilize every resource your computer has, and Skype is just ass to begin with.
Agreed. I was never like 100% happy with slack. But Skype4B is just too painful and dumb.
I always lose signal when driving around with Skype business and then it has to reconnect... never had this issue dialing into WebEx
yes
Glad to see this post, I thought I was the only one and just not businessy enough to get the software
Lol this is so funny. I know your pain man.
Did you try Teams instead of Skype? Its much better
Oh so it’s like Edge and Internet Explorer shit???? Two browsers, 2 control panels, 2 chat applications.
Team is more collaborative i wud say. Will Probably replace skype in a year.
