This is the simplest most basic piece of functionality a messaging app should do. The reason this app gets one star is because it doesn't sync up with skype on one's computer. We will continue to work with the program as the bugs continue to go away but be prepared for some frustration at the beginning. Huh? That makes no sense but it is real as the original Skype appears to be more stable. The most confusing part is that for some of my colleagues, Skype works but Business Skype acts buggy.

My iPhone and computer are somewhat less reliable but now work most of the time. It appears to be dependent on the strength of your wireless signal and if it is a bit low, you can lose connection. In some cases, it was unstable and the participant would lose audio and the program would constantly reconnect. It took a while to get used to it though. When it works, it is very good and our preferred program. You can easily share presentations and hear people clearly. Skype for business is fantastic when it works.
