Skype vs
Google Meet

Google Meet is handy for teams when splurging on a full-featured video calling tool isn't an option. Skype, on the flip side, is often used either when it’s the company's default, or the team's been using it forever and just can't be bothered to change. Let's break down Google Meet and Skype.

Skype has been here since 2003. That is 20 years. So how come the call button doesn't work?

Skype vs. Google Meet Compared
Skype's been around for a while. While it's still hanging in there, it's starting to feel a bit like that old flip phone you keep in a drawer "just in case."
Meet is great for quick team check-ins, but it falls short for long meetings. This is mainly due to its lack of AI-powered features & so-so audio-video quality.
