Microsoft Skype for Business

Access Deakin's telephony and communications service from your computer or mobile device.

This software is pre-installed on staff computers running the Deakin Desktop or Deakin Shield environment.

Deakin has transitioned from physical phones to software-based telephony, powered by Microsoft Skype for Business. This allows you to use your Deakin phone number from anywhere on almost any device, as well as use text-based instant messaging and video calling, share your screen with others, conduct multi-person conferencing, and hold online meetings.
