This is a blog for John Weber. One of my joys in life is helping others get ahead in life. Content here will be focused on that from this date forward. John was a Skype for Business MVP (2015-2018) - before that, a Lync Server MVP (2010-2014). I used to write a variety of articles (https://tsoorad.blogspot.com) on technical issues with a smattering of other interests. I have a variety of certifications dating back to Novell CNE and working up through the Microsoft MCP stack to MCITP multiple times. FWIW, I am on my third career - ex-USMC, retired US Army. I have a fancy MBA. The opinions expressed on this blog are mine and mine alone.

Click to Dial explained

VoipNorm just posted a very nice article on “ Lync 2010 Mobile and Desktop Click-to-Join for Non-Enterprise Voice Users .“  In reading through it, I noticed that he makes the statement that “I have heard people say repeatedly that you need to enable EV for Click-to-Join, but this is not true for either the desktop or mobile clients.”

This statement is accurate in that the user does not need to be EV-enabled, but based on several experiences, I will say that there needs to be some connection to the PSTN for Click-to-Join to work with any client.  I am pointing this out because I have had to explain to a potential client that there needed to be some connection {via gateway, SIP trunk (or some other magic)}, before dial-in conferencing (or outcalling) would work.

Just a clarification from my pea-brain, otherwise, another excellent piece of work from VoipNorm!

YMMV.
