This document compares the video conferencing services Skype and Google Hangouts. Skype allows for voice and video calls between 1-10 people if one person has a premium account, while Hangouts enables free video calls between up to 10 people. Both are easy to use but Hangouts integrates better with Google services and allows screen sharing without an active call. The recommendation is for Google Hangouts due to its free group video conferencing and ability to test screen sharing before inviting participants.
