FW: Don't upgrade from Lync to skype

Have you guys heard of this one? We use Microsoft Lync as an IM and online meeting tool. When a coworker upgraded to Skype for Business he had various issues with TOAD. Any ideas what that is about?

I got the helpdesk to uninstall this and re-install the old Lync I had. Yea……

Yea its really strange and it seems to be a different error each time it crashes. So it’s not consistent.

​I’ll drop a note to the dev team tomorrow and ask them if they have heard of this.

The new Skype for Business does not play nice with Toad.

I get all kinds of strange issues causing Toad to crash when I have Skype running.

Strange. We upgraded to Skype last year and I haven't seen an issue (except that Skype is pretty horrible). Any chance we could get a support bundle so we can see version/OS/...?

He has reverted to Lync. Still want the bundle anyway?

Yes please. It may give some insight into the issue.

And I personally think he "upgraded" to Lync from Skype. :slight_smile:

Okay, I have his support bundle. Not sure if I can attach it or not, but we’ll try it…

If that doesn’t work let me know how you would like me to send it.

Hi Chris,

Got it. Since he's running 12.6, it's pretty hard for us to troubleshoot since we're going to be releasing 12.11 in about 6 weeks.

Understood. Everyone isn’t as “leading edge” as I am. We’ve got people still on 11.6 just because that’s the version put on the network three years ago (or whatever) and the network guys who configure new laptops and such haven’t stayed up with the times and the users are too lazy or don’t know how to upgrade.
