I’m pleased to say Lync Revenue has grown 25% year on year.
From the Transcript
“Collaboration and communication continued to be a pillar of strength to our Office business. Lync, SharePoint and Exchange collectively grew double digits. Lync revenue grew over 25% as customers increasingly chose Microsoft for their voice and video rollouts. We are focused on the opportunities in this large and growing market. With Skype’s highly engaged users spending an average of 125 minutes per month, we’re particularly excited about the role Skype can play in connecting individuals and businesses together with voice and video.”
Also specifically on Skype:
“Last week, we reached a significant milestone with the closing of our acquisition of Skype. We welcome Skype employees into the Microsoft family. And, we welcome the over 170 million people who rely on Skype for their voice and video calls on a monthly basis. Now that the deal is closed, we are starting the integration of Skype’s world-class services and global-networked platform across our portfolio of products and services including Lync, Windows Live Messenger, Windows Phone, and the Xbox platform. Together, we will redefine social and real-time communications for consumers and businesses around the world.”
