ITS will retire its instance of Skype for Business on May 18, 2020. This alleviates the confusion of using Skype for Business & Teams, ours & Microsoft’s preferred replacement for Skype for Business.
 |
Currently, UVA has our Office 365 ITS Central tenant configured to run in "coexistence" mode. This mode allows for Skype for Business communications and Teams communications to be delivered to both endpoints. This actually causes confusion to the end-user because Teams chats happen in teams and Skype chats happen in Skype.
Our plan to move to "Teams Only" mode will mean that all communication, regardless of where it started, will be delivered in Teams, even if the other person is using Skype for Business.
Training materials will be developed by ITS and UVA Finance to assist you with this transition. We will have those materials and other information out to you as soon as they are available.
