Microsoft says they’ve also updated the Skype Operations Framework (SOF) assets to help customers plan, deliver and operate the new Mac client. This is exciting news for Apple Mac users as it’s the first time Microsoft has introduced an option for another platform that offers the full range of features. The Mac client features full video, content sharing and viewing, and one click to join meetings capabilities. The Skype for Business Mac client allows customers to convert to new software that has been built specifically for the Mac platform to deliver the best possible experience for users. The new client will see Apple Mac users upgrade from the former Lync Mac client 2011 and experience Skype for Business in a similar way to that offered on the Windows client.

In a long-awaited new release, the Skype for Business Mac client is now available for download in Australia.
