I'm trying to learn NVDA; I'm tired of paying for JAWS upgrades.  If there are other people using NVDA I would love to speak with them.

HI greg, 

I’m not sure about Jaws but both work fairly well with NVDA. 
I have a copy of Jaws 16 or 17, which I can use to test. 
The last time I used Jaws Skype was fairly accessible. 
On the iPhone, both are accessible.
I currently use a Mac but would of course use NVDA and Jaws to help others here since many don’t use that platform. 
 
Hope this answers your question,
Liz
