Open fire and Spark are up and running here.  Love 'em both - thanks for
the recommendation.

I just can't figure out why this is there big banner on their site:
"Cross-platform real-time collaboration client optimized for business
and organizations"

 

Yet they don't even offer a MSI or Silent Install process to deploy it
to the masses.  I've started to Google around, but all the solutions are
kinda convoluted.

 

How are you deploying IM?  Since OpenFire is Jabber/XMPP, are you using
a different client other than SPARK?

 

Thanks,
Sam

We use Spark, love it.  Integrates with our Asterisk system, AD,
Website(in testing).  We can transfer a phone call from our phone to the
chat client and vice versa from anywhere.  Features are good, lots of
customization.  It does take some work to get it going.

Openfire/Spark?  Looks promising and can be put on Windows or Linux.
Looks like it can also integrate with AD.  Dunno if it meets all your
requirements or not, but here's the site:

Looking to utilize an IM solution for about 3 users right now.  Might
expand to about 10 users - so please, no over the top large enterprise
recommendations.

 

Requirements:

Security

Trail/Logging

Can work over WAN

I can provide a backend server if needed.

A virtual appliance would be even better.

 

Any quick pointers are appreciated in conjunction with the research I
will be doing.

 

TIA,


Sam
