5 Great Skype Business Features  

Here are 5 Great Skype Business Features you may not Know about Yet

Call your Entire Team

You don’t have to call everyone individually when you use Skype, as everyone can get together for a team call. This is important if you work remotely as it is the only way to communicate with each other in a team meeting. You can only give a certain number of people a call, but at the end of the day, it’s impossible to talk to a huge number of people at once because hardly anyone gets a chance to talk.

 

Send Files to Anyone

If you are in business, you want to do more than talk to someone. If you have a conversation and want to talk about something in particular, you can send someone a file so they have something to watch while you talk. It also means you spend less time on the call because you don’t have to explain everything as you progress. You really can’t do this when you’re using a traditional phone, and in the past, you first had to send faxes or emails.

 

Share your Screen

There are other ways to give people access to the information you have in front of you, and screen sharing is sometimes better than file sharing. If someone sees what’s on your screen, you can point and click on certain things and they can follow you perfectly. It also works the other way around and you can see what’s on their screen if the conversation changes and you start talking about something else.

 

Get started with Skype Wi-Fi

You can only use Skype on your laptop when you have an Internet connection, and this can sometimes be annoying because you’re always looking for a Wi-Fi connection to connect to the network. Many places today have a Skype Wi-Fi connection, so you don’t even have to be connected to a real Wi-Fi network. You have to pay for the privilege to use it, and it comes from your credit, but it is certainly useful in certain situations.

 

You can buy your own number

When someone wants to call you, the right phone number will always help, because you can’t expect everyone to use Skype. It’s also crazy to think that you can list your Skype ID on your website instead of having the right number that customers can call, but don’t worry because you can buy a local phone number through Skype and when people call the number you receive it through your computer software. It’s not expensive and it’s essential when you think about it.
