Oddly enough Skype got bad under Microsoft's ownership too
Skype was good when it used to be p2p... but when Microsoft bought it, they changed how it works.
Skype was a grate sofware, now it is just a sad and buggy software
How can Skype be "insanely great" if its latest client is "horrendous"?
Yes. Microsoft has removed or reduced pretty much everything that made Skype great.
Skype used to rock before they were acquired
it is true the skype has some issues since MS acquired them, and there were some changes/decision made on it which I disliked, however, it is performing better lately. hopefully it will turn around.
Am I the only one who thought pre-Microsoft skype was a poorly-functioning product?
Can ms do something better than the pile of crap that is Skype for business?
just remember that skype's product was already starting to suck before microsoft bought them...
