Have you tried to sell MS Small Business Server, it makes it very
affordable to networks of 50 users or less.

Aren't there a couple ASP-type companies out there providing this kind
of service? I think some are even using Exchange.

Mark -
We're in the same boat. Regardless of how many times I ask the same
question, I get the same answer - nothing compares to Exchange. As
servers
are cheap in the overall scheme of things - if the company can not
afford to
do Exchange, I still rely on ISP mail. In between the ISP and the
office, I
use a software product called Software 602 which handles the pull
portion.
In addition, I looked at the email from Deerfield but am REALLY pissed
at
them and will not resell or purchase any of their products anymore.

Subject: Exchange/Outlook Alternatives
I'm constantly asked for recommendations on VIABLE alternatives to the
MS Outlook/Exchange groupware system. Let's face it: Exchange is
expensive, and does a lot of things that most of my SMB customers will
never need. I've seen a few different products, but have yet to find one
that integrates and works as well as Outlook with an Exchange server.
Do you guys have any ideas on substitutes. The main core features that
most SMB's use would be the scheduling/calendaring , POP/IMAP email, and
address book. It'd be nice to have the whole lot integrated, but
seperate products with a good UI would do. The email and address book
clients are easy enough to find, but what about calendaring? Something
with the ability to both share an office calendar, and have seperate
(but viewable) calendars for each worker. Editor priveleges for a
secretary on specific calendars would be a plus, as well. To complicate
it a bit further, how about something that would work on a peer-to-peer
network (< 10 PC's) with no dedicated server? Any thoughts?
