I looked at it for corporate use a little while ago, couldn't see much of a problem but still said no as it just didn't feel right as a replacement for some other products we were running.
However, I have just finished a re-evaluation and we are about to install it for our "International" team so they can reduce their global call costs. The main caveat is that they support it themselves once it is up and running, and they are more than happy to do so, seeing as it is so straightforward. I've also told them they can use video, but anything better then useless is a bonus. Andy.

We've got a client that wants us to use Skype for communications with them. I've always been a little leery of using them in a business environment, but looking at it now, I see they have a MSI download for easy deployment and a group policy template for central administration of settings. It all looks pretty cool. While the security guy in me wants to say no, I'm having a hard time finding a reason not to say OK. I'm curious what the members of this esteemed group think about it ...Tim Internet communications are not secure and therefore Leonard Cheshire Disability does not accept any liability for the content of this message.
