Think what it would be like to try to run a business without knowing if your phone number would be valid tomorrow. They should think about what it was like when Skype had a WORLD-WIDE total service outage for three days last August, and has had several more local outages since then. They should think about the fact that when PAYING Skype customers need support, there is no phone number to call (a phone service without a phone number? That should say a lot right there!). There is no email address to write to. The only means of contacting support is via the Skype web page, and it promises a response only after FOUR DAYS - and of course doesn't mention that the response, when it finally arrives, is generally useless gibberish. They should think about the hundreds, or thousands, of Skype customers who have had their accounts blocked, and can't even find out the reason until the above-mentioned FOUR DAY response delay passes. Would you like to run a business and not be able to use the phone for four days, with no explanation?

Its protocol is closed and cryptic. I prefer standards like SIP. Skype's business relies heavily on vendor lock-in, which as we all know isn't good at all for the consumer. Recently I tried gizmo and it seems pretty nice, too. Skype isn’t bad, but it’s far from perfect. Its protocol is closed and cryptic. I prefer standards like SIP.
