Option #1 – Purchase/Subscribe to a Calling Plan from Microsoft
Luckily, many businesses can take this time to explore new options associated with the change. If your organization subscribes to any one of the Skype for Business calling plans, it will be your responsibility to prepare and set up for the transition this summer. Is your organization ready to transition into Microsoft Teams? While any new Microsoft Office 365 subscribers have been directed straight to Teams without the option to use Skype for Business, organizations that use or rely on the software for remote communication via Skype’s calling plans will have to transition themselves to Teams following the July 31st End of Life deadline. In late 2017, Microsoft announced that Skype for Business software and subscriptions would be discontinued in favour of the cloud-based team collaboration software, MS Teams. Skype for Business, formerly Microsoft Lync and Office Communicator, became the go-to enterprise software solution for businesses in the mid 2010’s as part of Microsoft’s product offering through Office 365 Subscriptions.
The Skype for Business End of Life is set to take place July 31, 2021, and with that time creeping steadily towards us, organizations across every industry are asking: what’s next? So long, Skype for Business! Is your organization ready?
