Skype
for Business is being replaced
by Microsoft Teams. Please refer
to our documentation on
Microsoft Teams.
If
you use Skype for Business,
please read the following
important information:
We
are in the process of migrating
users to Microsoft Teams. A user
who has been changed to
TeamsOnly to use Microsoft Teams
will still be able to join
exisitng Skype for Business
meetings that have been
organized by non-upgraded or
external users. An upgraded user
can continue to communicate with
other users in the organization
who are still using Skype for
Business by using
interoperability capabilities
between Teams and Skye for
Business; however; an upgraded
user can't initiate a Skype for
Business chat, call or meeting.
They will have to use Micrsoft
Teams for that. Your presence
(or availability status) will
come from Microsoft Teams.
You will
know if you have been upgraded
to TeamsOnly if you see this
pop-up where you can choose to
use the Teams app or continue
onto the Skype for Business
client to participate only with
meetings (i.e. can no longer
initiate calls, meetings or
chats):
Microsoft has
provided more information on the
transition from Skype for
Business to Teams.
