How Is Skype Even Still Alive?
Skype revolutionized international communication by moving expensive overseas calls onto the internet. People no longer had to pay an arm and a leg to get in contact with friends and family internationally or carefully watch how long they were talking. Not to mention, Skype came with additional features such as video calls, screen sharing, and the ability to have group calls easily. Skype was no doubt an early mover and they benefited handsomely, but not everything was so great. Given Skype’s dominance from day 1, they often overlooked customer satisfaction. For example, reliability was a huge concern for Skype given their p2p model. Also, Skype had a reputation for never adding highly requested features and deprecating already beloved features. These oversights allowed competitors to slowly siphon Skype’s users over the years, and the pandemic threw this into overdrive. This video explains the slow downfall of Skype and how they still have quite a few users despite their brutal fall.
