Lync Online is a communications application that delivers multiple channels for receiving,sending, and sharing data from one individual or group to another. Instant messaging, web conferencing, and screen sharing are a few of the communication methods used within this service. Based on a cloud commuting system, Lync Online can connect members of a team with one another in a reliable and engaging way. It is part of the umbrella system called Office 365, which also houses SharePoint online, Exchange email, and Microsoft Office Online products.
Some of the important features of the Lync Online service include:
- IM service with multiple connection capabilities. -This allows the connection to be clearer, faster, and more readily available when the customer wants to communicate.
- Video conference calling for one-on-one communications or larger, group meetings.- Audio conferencing is also available for customers who need this simpler function. Web conferencing is another possibility for group members who enjoy annotation, note taking, and other convenient in-meeting tools.
- Peer to peer file transfers.- This makes for a more efficient sharing system as no email uploading or downloading is required.

| Regional IT at a maritime company with 501-1,000 employees | 4.5 | I find Lync excellent for virtual meetings and presentations, standardizing communication easily. While video conferencing on 3G/4G networks can be an issue, I appreciate its ease of use and hope for continued improvements. |
| Technology Consultant at a tech consulting company with 1,001-5,000 employees | I've used this for years, valuing its IM, Presence, EV, and excellent support. It offers great ROI with no maintenance, though I occasionally face public Wi-Fi video conferencing issues. | |
| Manager of Infrastructure at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees | 4.0 | No summary available |
