Skype for your Business
Published Thursday, October 27, 2005 by Miss_PSX | E-mail this post
A new service launched on Tuesday, Skype Groups, which enables companies to set up Skype accounts for employees.
This new service, enables just one person within the company to pick up the bill for all Skype users in an organization.
Until now, every Skype user had to individually purchase credits for calls to normal telephone numbers.
Skype calls are free when other Skype users are called over the Internet, but when normal telephone numbers are called Skype charges by the minute, because it uses the part of the land line network.
New toolbars introduced last week for outlook, Internet Explorer and Firefox, allow employees to call their contacts straight quicker and easier with skype.
A survey among 400 subscribers who used Skype Groups in the trial period showed that 63 percent used it for business and avoiding expensive international calls, and almost half of them used it for free conference calls.
