Skype for Business is finally coming to the Mac. Microsoft today announced that IT administrators can request an invite to preview the service before a wider release in the future.
The tool is fairly limited in its initial preview; you an only view and join meetings as shown on your Outlook Calendar. Once you join a meeting, you can do some basic chatting and invite others to the meeting.
Microsoft says that more features will arrive in phases. A first wave during the early summer will add instant messaging and contacts, while the third phase will add “telephony and related features” later in the summer.
