That’s why you, the administrator, need to swoop in and help them out. As you can see, I’m logged on as a guy called “eastsalesuser4.” If I were to go to the “Tools/Options” page here, like lots of other applications that PolicyPak can control, there are just too many things for a user to mess up on their own. I’ve already got my Microsoft Lync client here, and I’m just a regular user here. In this video, we’re going to learn how to use PolicyPak to manage Microsoft Lync client. Hi, this is Jeremy Moskowitz, former Group Policy MVP and Founder of PolicyPak Software. Manage Microsoft Lync client with Group Policy video transcript When you’re ready to get serious about managing the Lync client, PolicyPak is ready for you. PolicyPak was designed by former Group Policy MVP Jeremy Moskowitz – who “wrote the book” on Group Policy, runs, and lives and breathes Group Policy and enterprise software deployments and desktop lockdown. It’s all included when you’re a PolicyPak Professional customer. With PolicyPak, you can deliver lots of Lync Client settings and ensure that you’re in charge and users’ settings are unchangeable.īesides, once you’re using PolicyPak to manage the Lync Client, you’ll also get to manage all your other enterprise desktop applications the same way:Flash, WinZip, Firefox, and any custom applications you have. And when it is deployed, make sure your users are using it the way you intended, instead of working around your settings. Or ensure your users don’t mess with settings which are dictated from the Lync server by completely disabling a whole tab, like what is seen here. You can dictate the Inactive and Away times for the Lync Client, like what is seen here. You can deliver key settings and lock users out of scary Lync Client settings, as seen here. PolicyPak is a true management system, which can lock down the Lync client and ensure users cannot work around your set policies. There’s simply no way to manage the Lync client using Group Policy any other way. Note: This video shows Lync 2010, but we also have a pre-configured Paks for Lync 2013 and Skype for Business 2015/2016. So if you want to ensure that users can’t “mess up their Skype Client settings” then check out this video. With this pak, you’ll be able to deliver lots of Skype client settings PLUS lock down areas of the Skype client that users can access. Your Active Directory admins already know how to use Group Policy, but too bad they can’t configure the Skype client.Įxcept now you can, with the pre-configured PolicyPak for Business Pak. Well, then, you already know there’s no “In the box” way to manage the Skype client using Group Policy – which is a real bummer. And, let me guess, you’re using it (or are about to be) using it too.Įxcellent.
Skype for Business is awesome! And lots of organizations are using it. 06: PolicyPak for Microsoft Skype for Business (formerly Lync)
