A. B. C. D.B.
When migrating from Skype for Business Online to Microsoft Teams, it is possible to configure the environment to allow users to use both platforms during the migration period. To achieve this, Microsoft provides a feature called "Skype for Business with Teams Collaboration coexistence mode." This mode allows users to continue using Skype for Business while gradually transitioning to Microsoft Teams.
In this mode, there are two possible options for how users can use Skype for Business and Microsoft Teams. The first option is to receive chats, calls, and schedule meetings in Skype for Business, which is option A in the answers. This means that users will continue to use Skype for Business as their primary communication tool, but they can also use Microsoft Teams for collaboration with their colleagues.
The second option is to receive chats and calls in Skype for Business, but use Microsoft Teams for group collaboration and meeting scheduling. This is option C in the answers. This means that users will primarily use Microsoft Teams for collaboration, but they can still receive calls and chats in Skype for Business if they need to.
Option B, which states that users receive chats and calls in Skype for Business but use Teams for group collaboration, is not a valid option because it implies that users cannot use Skype for Business for group collaboration.
Option D, which states that users use Teams as their only communication and collaboration tool, is not correct because it does not allow for the coexistence of Skype for Business and Teams during the migration period.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C: Users receive chats and calls in Skype for Business but use Teams for group collaboration and meeting scheduling.
