The following table summarizes the different setups that you may have and the web client that is used.Apart from staple features centered on making calls, Skype for Web has also received quite a number of user interface improvements.
Users who have user accounts on-premises (whether they have a vanity URL or not) or are managed by Microsoft will see the Lync experience in the Outlook web app. As long as the user's account is online and doesn't have a vanity URL, they will still see the experience even if their organization has some user accounts that are homed on-premises. This basic client is available for Online users whose admin hasn't configured a vanity URL for their Microsoft 365 and Office 365. Outlook on the web (Outlook Web App) in Microsoft 365 or Office 365 offers a basic Skype for Business web client from the navigation bar. The Skype for Business Web App allows guest users (non-UPMC staff) who dont have a full version of Skype for Business to participate in Skype for Business.
