“It’s a simple case of click
and hello, whether it’s a
message or a video call.
It’s that quick - and that easy.”

Call, instant message, video call and conference with one piece of software and save yourself the cost and hassle of setting up lots of different solutions.
Type a message and get an instant response.
Instant messaging (IM) is a real-time alternative to calling when it's not a good time to talk. Simply type your conversation instead.
Skype saves your full conversation history on your computer, so you can go back through your old messages to retrace a decision or check a key date.
Tell everyone who needs to know – in one message.
Create group IMs for teams and project groups to use as discussion spaces, or use them in place of email distribution lists to share need-to-know information instantly.
Simply choose a contact, and click the +Add people button (in Windows) or the +Add button (on a Mac) at the top of Skype. Add everyone in the team or on the project and create the group. You can add and eject people at any time.
Group IMs are free, anytime, anywhere in the world.
Sending files is free – and there are no size limits.
Simply drag and drop files into an instant message, or click the Send file button and choose the file(s) you want to share.
Each sent and received file is listed in your message history.
Send SMS to mobiles anywhere in the world at extremely low rates.
Simply go to the call phones tab (in Windows) or click the dial pad icon at the bottom of Skype (on a Mac). Enter a mobile number and click the SMS button, then type your message and click Send.
You can also save your mobile as your caller identification so people will know it’s you sending the message.
