I've moved several companies now from Kolab to Scalix. Most of the time it's been because the Trolltech connector for Outlook sucks. I have a hard time envisioning a successful Kolab install.
Heck, with as much closenes as there (at least initially) was between KDE and Kolab, it's telling that even QT is now using Scalix. (And has a connector for integrating Kontact already included with PIM Enterprise, which is awesome). I most certainly would admit to a personal bias here, but Scalix has worked great for myself and for many of our customers. Kev. On Tuesday 09 October 2007 20:29:43 Greg R.
