CHAPTER 1: Getting Started with Office 365 > Using the Lync Client
Using the Lync Client
The Lync client application is exactly the same one that you would use with an on-premise installation of Lync Server 2010. In Office 365, the server is hosted in the cloud and the client application connects to it just as if it were on-premise.
Using the Presence Indicators
The Lync client allows you to see the current status of your contacts. The contact's picture is also displayed if one has been configured (see Figure 1-27).
Figure 1-27. Viewing frequent contacts
Tip You can load a photo or other image that others will see from their Lync client. Upload an image file from your profile page on Office 365 or from the Lync client.
You can change your status using the Lync client, as shown in Figure 1-28.
