#SKYPE FOR BUSINESS ON PREMISE END OF LIFE DOWNLOAD#
Something like.well, Matrix! By going Matrix-based your workforce can have instant, licence-free interoperability with any other Matrix user.Īnd for communicating with those stuck in traditional proprietary systems, there’s Matrix-based bridging services for the likes of Microsoft Teams, Slack, Discord and Telegram.ĭoubtless this is all rather obvious to you after all you’re here on our website already! But if you need something to substantiate the good sense and logic of jumping from Skype for Business Server to an on-premise deployment of Element, you can download our guide.Although Microsoft has announced the Skype for Business Online end-of-life date, it has not officially announced the end-of-life date for Skype for Business Server. Well of course! Which means that you’ll require an open standard for real time communication. Would you like your workforce to be able to communicate with everyone they need to? So, pick something that’s end-to-end encrypted.ĥ. Like Microsoft Exchange Server, Skype for Business Server is not end-to-end encrypted which means that if it gets owned in an attack, all its data is fully accessible. If communication is worth keeping on-premise, then it needs to be kept secure.Īs we saw with the Microsoft Exchange Server attacks in March 2021, on-premise servers have vulnerabilities that can be exploited. Is securing communication as important as keeping it on-premise? Some genuine innovation, and a few bells and whistles, wouldn’t hurt either.Ĥ. You need something that’s as simple as a messaging app, but as powerful as a complete collaboration platform and is beautifully native to smartphones, tablets, laptop and terminals alike.
People are working from the frontline, from home, on the move and in the office. Will your on-premise communication needs evolve? Especially if you’re a security-conscious organisation that would rather trust itself than an unencrypted vendor-controlled cloud solution.ģ. Do you really need to keep communications on-premise? It’s time to move and there are better alternatives out there.Ģ. Does Skype for Business Server have a convincing product roadmap? In fact, we’ve honed it down to just five questions you need to ask yourself.ġ. There’s a whole new breed of on-premise communications platforms out there, but narrowing them down needn’t take long. So the bottom line is: you need to find an on-premise alternative to Skype for Business Server. The bummer is, if you’re on Skype for Business Server 2019 you know you’ll have to migrate to something by the end of 2023 or face the horrors of (an unusually shortened two year only) Extended Support contract. It's passed on! This platform is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to the Teams cloud! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If it weren’t for Extended Support it'd be pushing up the daisies! It's deprecated! It's kicked the bucket, shuffled off its server, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible!! SFB is as dead as its Twitter account.
Skype for Business Twitter feed last updated mid 2018 Beyond that it’s outdated as its Twitter feed. If you need to keep your communications on-premise, just about the only reason to migrate to Skype for Business Server 2022 is that it isn’t cloud-based Microsoft Teams.
That’s Microsoft’s intended migration path for you. Skype for Business Server 2022 is the last throw of a loaded dice that always lands on Microsoft Teams. On-premise communications might be your priority, but it clearly isn’t Microsoft’s. Skype for Business is pining for the fjords.
