April 2015, Skype officially launched Skype for Business to replace Lync, combining features of Lync and the consumer Skype software. This announcement aroused a great deal of discussion about the upgrades, differences, and direct impacts on current Lync users. In this blog, we will share some key information that Lync users need to be aware of about Skype for Business.
Absolutely! Administrators have the ability to control and choose when you would like to roll out the updated experience to your users. For Lync Online users with Office 365 ProPlus, Office 365 Business Premium or Office 2013, the default is the updated Skype for Business interface and for Lync Server users, Lync UI will be the default experience.
Administrators are able to adjust the setting from the new Skype client design back to the familiar Lync user interface design for their users. Click here for detailed instruction of how to switch between Lync and Skype for Business interfaces.
You could use Remote PowerShell in Office 365 or utilize the PowerShell script provided by Microsoft to implement the migration to Skype for Business.
