The various features I get to use when teaching. The variety of backgrounds always fascinate my students. The fast notifications really help to keep updated with my upcoming virtual meetings/classes.

What do you like best about Skype?
The free version even gives us all the basic functionalities including meetings and calls, chats and app integration services. The call quality was not compromised at any level. Reliable source with end to end encryption. The flexibility offers is to use it across various devices. Backups and synchronisation is at ease. Experience business meetings with HD audio and video qualities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Skype?
Being a network dependent app, more bandwidth is required to avoid fluctuations and choppy playbacks. Being vulnerable to hackers is still an impending doubt. Going for Pro features by paying huge amount is unnecessary until you need it for your basic routine like unlimited calling facilities abroad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
