User sent an all staff email announcing she was going to be out of the office for a few days. Another user then send an all staff email announcing he was going to be out for a few days too. C-level sends an email in response and i thought all hell was going to break loose with bitch fits and unsubscribe requests. Turns out the response went only to me asking to address this at the next tech committee meeting so we can correct culture behavior before it gets out of control. I almost wept from joy.

It's exposing the more advanced features to the endpoints and then being able to deploy the endpoints that becomes a nightmare that is worth making someone else's problem. From what I have seen from Skype and the partnership with Polycom, everything seems to be getting done in the right way. As someone with a global Skype for Business deployment which uses Polycom phones and another third party trusted app, please let me speak this clearly for you: gently caress SKYPE FOR BUSINESS It's all the worst parts of SIP voodoo and Microsoft server voodoo all wrapped up into one poorly designed interface. Let me give you two recent examples: From just last week: I have a very simple mobile client policy, it's the default that was updated in the June 2016 CU for SfB. This is global for all sites, all users. About two weeks ago, anyone assigned to the Brisbane AU pool that was using an iOS device was getting the message "you must update your client to the latest version" when they tried to connect. Nothing in the event logs. Nothing useful in the client logs. I gathered a bunch of logging with their new and awful logging tool and tried finding the error, never did. Finally wrapped everything up and sent it off to our SfB support VAR. A week of back and forth, more logs, they're stumped. I decided to have one more go of troubleshooting on Thursday, fire up my iOS testing device, and it logs in fine. Starts working for all of the users down there as well, except for the ONE GUY who can't use search for contacts for no reason that's ever logged. gently caress Skype for Business. Three weeks ago: Client calls through one of our remote pools were failing after 30 seconds. Every call would drop, SfB was reporting that the client ended the call, clients were reporting that SfB ended the call. Almost a week of troubleshooting. Replacing certs, checking deployment, combing over everything. Our VAR was stumped, so we used one of our vouchers and opened a case with Microsoft and got it escalated. SfB engineer at MS had no idea, his final solution to fix it? Download the topology, delete that branch, reboot the servers, re-upload the topology. Wala, everything worked. gently caress Skype for Business. Now I'm rolling out SfB in 4 more international locations this year, I'm sure this is going to go over swimmingly. gently caress Skype For Business.

Yeah, nowadays I could not imagine our phone team being separate from IT. If we were larger, maybe a specific person or group to manage reporting and auto attendants. But the providing dial tone? IT all the way (with IP telephony at least).
