Full featured meaning what? Everything Lync has, or more?

I recommend using Google+ for this.<br />
<br />
G+ has hangouts (video conferencing), chat (web &amp;&nbsp;mobile), integration with google drive, etc. You can also set up your organization so that all of your conversations are limited to users within your domain.<br />
<br />
Configuration/Implementati<wbr />on is very simple and potentially zero cost.

I would recommend Google Hangouts, you either need a personal or business (Google Apps) Google account. <br />
<br />
Of course all things work the best when using a Business (Google Apps) account and many more features are enabled/enhanced.<br />

Good morning.<br />
<br />
We are in need of a full-featured online collaboration solution for offices at multiple locations. Microsoft Lync has been problematic and we'd like to make a switch. Any recommendations for a full-featured online collaboration tool would be appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thanks

Need recommendations for online collaboration solution for offices at multiple locations.

Web conferencing describes various types of online collaborative services including web seminars ("webinars"), webcasts, and peer-level web meetings. In general, web conferencing is made possible by Internet technologies, particularly on TCP/IP connections. Services may allow real-time point-to-point communications as well as multicast communications from one sender to many receivers. It offers data streams of text-based messages, voice and video chat to be shared simultaneously, across geographically dispersed locations. Applications for web conferencing include meetings, training events, lectures, or presentations from a web-connected computer to other web-connected computers. Popular titles include GoToMeeting, Cisco WebEx, Microsoft Lync, TeamViewer and Skype.

Conferencing Software

Cloud computing, also known as on-demand computing, is a kind of Internet-based computing where shared resources and information are provided to computers and other devices. It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources. Cloud computing and storage solutions provide users and enterprises with various capabilities to store and process their data in third-party data centers, relying on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economies of scale.

Cloud Computing

Google Workspace is a suite of cloud computing productivity and collaboration software tools and software. It includes Google’s popular web applications including Gmail, Drive, Hangouts, Calendar, and Docs. While these products are available to consumers free of charge, Google Workspace adds business-specific features such as custom email addresses at your domain and storage for documents and email.
