"The decision to close Skype in May and transition users to Microsoft Teams reflects Microsoft's strategic shift in online communication services."
"Founded in 2003, Skype transformed communication by enabling internet-based voice and video calls, becoming a staple for users worldwide."
Microsoft announced it will shut down Skype, the video-calling service acquired for $8.5 billion in 2011, by May 2025. Users can shift to Microsoft Teams, which has been prioritized by the company in recent years. Originally founded in 2003, Skype was a trailblazer in internet calling, becoming synonymous with video communications. Despite its popularity, particularly used during high-profile events like the Trump administration's press briefings, Microsoftâs closure of Skype aligns with a broader trend of consolidating communication tools under Teams.
