Who Owns Skype for Business?

As Pace students, faculty, and staff, you have access to a powerful tool for communication and collaboration - Skype for Business. This unified communications solution, powered by Microsoft's VoIP technology, offers a range of features designed to streamline your online interactions.

One of the key benefits of Skype for Business is its ability to help you manage your presence status. Whether you're available, busy, or away from your desk, you can easily change your status to reflect your current availability. This feature is especially useful when working with colleagues across different time zones or departments.

But what about getting started with Skype for Business? Microsoft provides comprehensive help resources, including the Skype for Business Help topics catalog. You can access this resource by clicking on the Settings icon within the Skype for Business application, selecting Help, and then clicking on the Skype for Business Help link.

In addition to online resources, your local IT support is available to assist with any Skype for Business needs you may have. While SfB software requires users to schedule their own meetings, your local IT support can provide guidance and assistance with setting up and managing your meetings.

It's also worth noting that ITS has identified Skype for Business Online as a future service offering for students. However, at this time, student services do not currently offer a Skype for Business service.

In terms of software support, WSU ensures that users have the ability to use the SfB software application on WSU's equipment and network. This means that you can rely on your local IT support team to help troubleshoot any issues you may encounter with the software.

Finally, it's important to note that Skype for Business is not a resource for making and receiving standard telephone calls. If you need assistance with setting up or using Skype for Business, please don't hesitate to reach out to your local IT support team. They'll be happy to help you get started and answer any questions you may have.

Overall, Skype for Business offers a range of features designed to enhance your online communication and collaboration experience. By leveraging the power of this unified communications solution, you can work more efficiently and effectively with your colleagues - both on and off campus.
