Skype Means Business

Skype today announced an expanded "Skype for Business" offering. My quick take is that these are mostly improvements to administer installation of Skype, and they do include some new controls to limit the features that users can access (such as file transfer), but I don't see any mention of being able to create centralized call data records nor the ability to do something such as redirect incoming call requests to other Skype accounts (e.g. if an employee leaves the organization). So it looks like these tools will be useful to smaller businesses, but they are still lacking the controls that are required by larger, and regulated organizations.
