Skype for Business vs. Whatsapp
There is a group in my enterprise who is considering the use of Whatsapp rather than Skype for Business (we're already a S4B Online shop). I would like to think that most, if not all, of the Whatsap...
Whatsapp is definitely outclassed and outshined by Skype for Business in regards to feature set and central managability so my instinct would be to get in a room with them and try and get to the bottom of what it is they really like about whatsapp and if it is a feature that S4B cannot do (unlikely) they look at other items in the O365 offering that could emulate their requirements.
The only thing I can think of is the chat room style functionality that whatsapp seems to more naturally do. And that can be easily emulated with other tools like Yammer and in a more feature rich controlled manner.
