Lync News Summary Out of TechEd North America 2013

Posted on 6:12 AM by Unknown

Was glad to chat a little bit via Skype to Mattias Kressmark who was on the TechEd 2013 expo floor last evening and get a little conference update. He and others are covering Lync developments quite well via twitter but it was good to video-chat to see & hear the buzz (and note that New Orleans culture seems to be rubbing of a bit on conference attendees as shown below)

A summary from Day1/June 3:

  • Lync Labs are good and working great so if you are on the ground, head over give them a go. (As a secret side benefit the lab facilitators are great Lync experts)
  • An observation from UC standpoint: There were a lot Server announcements to talk about but no big Skype or Lync announcements, In fact they were not even named in the 2 hour keynote on Day 1.  (presumably because most big announcements made at #LyncConf13)
  • The Surface RT and Pro give away…ah, rrr, sale, was creating huge lines.
  • from the expo floor: snom is showing their snom Vision
  • From the expo floor: AudioCodes is showing their coming 400HD Series phones:
