Lync Advantages:
- The default standard for almost all enterprises (and still growing rapidly at the expense of IBM Sametime and Cisco Jabber)

- Integration with Office, SharePoint, Exchange and Skype
VSee Advantages:
- Able to call people outside your company (something almost impossible w/ Lync)
- Simple multiparty group video conference without servers (while Lync group video must had dedicated servers)
- Simple to deploy - does not require administrator permissions to run the vsee client (while Lync requires administrator to set it up for you)
