Came to comment this. I know there are only so many letters, and so many combinations of 4-8 of them, but can we quit naming new things with the name of an old thing?
Finding any details about France’s Visio is going to be a cluster.
Does that make this better? A translated French search query would be ‘joining video call isn’t working’ and that will return results for every conference tool known to man.
Call it something like FVC (la France VisioConférence) , or some French play on the way that sounds, which would be a uniquely searchable term in this domain.
This is not a hill I’m dying on, but it’s terminally short sighted and a bad user experience to name your product the same thing as a microslop trademark. They are the worst for this already with their multiple active variants of office 365 tools like outlook and their xbox name nonsense.
Oh, I have a great idea for a new car company. Lets call it ‘Car’! Then people can have a Car Car, or maybe even a Car Car 2026… oh or a Car Truck when we branch out. (future google search: replace car truck 2028 oil filter)
Lol, replacing one o365 product with one named identically to another o365 product, classic.

Visio is [the shorthand of] what the french call a video call
visioconférence

Nah, you can always come up with new combos. They could have named it ‘squonchy’ or ‘flurgled’, for example.
Pray explain how those are pronounced in French?
Just like they’re written.
