Utter crap platform/service....wholly… Utter crap platform/service....wholly useless,in too many ways to mention! But one has to wonder about the HR professionals ability to recruit people who can design/service such software/app.Given up on it.

Good for audio calls I'm satisfied with the quality of audio calls. I don't use video though. Skype comes in handy if you have a remote job and need to collaborate with your colleagues. As for other purposes, the features may not be enough. For example, if I was giving private or group classes, I would probably prefer a video conferencing platform instead. But it's up to you, I remember Skype language lessons were extremely popular before the pandemic. Anyway, what you definitely can't do on Skype is send large files. There's a limit of 300MB.

I just downloaded the new version and didn't like it. I just downloaded the new version, December 2023, version 8.11. I use Skype daily and I'm largely happy with it but this new version promptly changed my name and my Skype ID and lost the funds I have against my account. Fortunately it installed alongside the old version so I was able to uninstall it promptly and revert to the more reliable older version. Stop trying to improve something that's fine as it is.

LGBTQ HARRASSEMENT LGBTQ: stop harrassing me and others on Skype for invites to chat! This morning when I jumpstarted my PC, there was an invitation to join this group. I do not want to hear from depraved individuals, leave me alone, you should be sued for breaking into my private page - all of you! Go spread your brand of filth elsewhere!

Since trustpilot removed my last honest… Since trustpilot removed my last honest review of skype I refer readers to their overal rating, less than two stars. You see microsoft that owns skype is too powerful for a little place like sitejabber to publish negative reviews even if they are true. Likely to be my last review on this site, not an honest site,imo. And they want to track and ID you because you cannot post without logging into your personal email. Try sitejabber, much better.
