New Interoperability Bolsters Enterprise Communication Platform's Performance for Microsoft Office 365
SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwired - March 29, 2016) - Zoom Video Communications, Inc., a leading provider of video communications services, today announced the addition of native interoperability with Microsoft Skype for Business (formerly Lync) to its enterprise video conferencing platform.
The new integration allows Skype for Business users to seamlessly call into a Zoom meeting directly from Skype for Business, providing several core benefits:
"I am pleased to announce native interoperability with Skype for Business," said Eric S. Yuan, Founder and CEO of Zoom. "This will bring Zoom's versatile, powerful video communications solution to the estimated 50% of enterprise businesses that have deployed Lync."
"Zoom and Microsoft Office 365 already coexist at hundreds of thousands of businesses. This native interoperability with Skype for Business brings these two powerful platforms together for frictionless video communications. As an extension of our other Microsoft integrations -- Active Directory SSO integration, Skype for Business messaging, Outlook scheduling, and mobile content sharing from OneDrive -- this interoperability makes Zoom part of the natural workflow of these organizations," said Oded Gal, Head of Product Management for Zoom.
Skype for Business interoperability is free and readily available to Zoom Enterprise and Business Plan customers, and is enabled by Zoom customer support. Interested parties should contact their Zoom sales representative or submit a request on zoom.us/contactsales.
