“Skype screen share becomes premium; Google+ Hangout = free;” $ MSFT $ GOOG
I just went onto Skype to screen share for a conference but apparently after Microsoft bought Skype, all these features which used to be free comes with a $ sign. You can’t even just pay with credit anymore. To use premium features you must subscribe to a monthly €6.99/month or annual plan: €3.49/month.
Thankfully you don’t need to stick with Skype. First off, for video conferencing I have found Apple’s FaceTime (free) to have the best quality so this is where I do the actual video conferencing, which is free. Google Plus’ Hangout (also free) supports screen share so that is what I use to share the actual screen.
Relying on monthly subscriptions to drive revenue is terrible. Companies can make more money doing data analytics for businesses, I think. But some companies are filled with financial advisors who just want to make quick easy bucks. Ah well, shortsighted business people abound.
