“What’s Your Number?” Phound Offers a Lifeline for Skype Users Facing Shutdown, Technology Reseller News Podcast with Dave Erickson, Co-founder, Phound

“Skype wasn’t born at Microsoft. It was born with a vibe—and we’ve built Phound around that same spirit,” says Dave Erickson, Co-founder, Phound. As Microsoft sunsets Skype, longtime users are left with a difficult question: What now? In this special episode of Technology Reseller News, publisher Doug Green sits down with Dave Erickson, co-founder of Phound, to discuss how Phound is stepping up to fill the void left by the closure of the iconic communications platform.

Phound Offers Lifeline for Skype Users as Microsoft Shuts Down Service

Erickson argues that Phound doesn’t just replace Skype—it upgrades it. Offering a familiar user experience built around phone numbers, affordable add-ons, and a frictionless onboarding process, Phound is positioning itself as the natural home for Skype’s former user base. Unlike Teams, which targets enterprise workflows, Phound maintains the lightweight, accessible, and international-friendly features that made Skype a global success—complete with modern HD voice, full spam controls, verified caller identity, and porting options for legacy numbers.

For just $5/month, users get a full suite of services: unlimited voice, SMS, online meetings for up to 1,000 participants, and the ability to restore or reclaim numbers that still matter—like that HVAC sticker with an outdated contact number.

“People used Skype to talk to just a handful of trusted contacts,” Erickson reflects. “Phound respects that simplicity—but gives you more.”

Phound’s special migration page makes the transition seamless for former Skype users. Visit https://phound.app/ to get started.
