Would be a MSDN subscription but what you can download here isn´t an evaluation version, its more a developer license to build something for Lync and test that. Its mostly identically to Lync 2013 and if you know Lync 2013 you could manage as well Skype for business. I personally would directly start with Skype for Business.

Would be the Skype for business evaluation version which you can get here. You could get such a evaluation version here, but that link no longer works due to the reason that there is now Skype for Business. There is still a Trial Lync client out there ( 32bit / 64bit ) BUT that's not the server.įor Lync 2013 its mostly the same, however its not that old but was already replaced with 'Skype for Business'. Note: Do not get confused with Lync Server and Lync client.

Therefore Microsoft is pulling down the older evaluation versions (for example Lync 2010 which was here) as Lync 2010/2013 is already replaced with Skype for Business.

Keep noted that Lync 2010 already reached the end of the Mainstream Support as it was fully replaced by Lync 2013 (which is now replaced with Skype for Business see below). But as Skype for Business also offered to manage the firmware for Lync Phones you should try that one (see here).

Therefore you couldn´t any longer find them. Short answer: Lync 2010/2013 are replaced by Skype for Business.
