The Inverse Team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of SOGo
2.2.0. This is a minor release of SOGo which focuses on improved stability over
previous versions and the addition of the Microsoft ActiveSync protocol support.
What is SOGo
SOGo is a free and modern scalable groupware server. It offers shared
calendars, address books and emails through your favorite Web browser or by
using a native client such as Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning, Apple Calendar
and Address Book (OSX and iOS) and Microsoft Outlook.
SOGo is standard-compliant and supports CalDAV, CardDAV, GroupDAV and reuses
existing IMAP, SMTP and database servers - making the solution easy to deploy
and interoperable with many applications.
SOGo features:
Scalable architecture suitable for deployments from dozen to many thousand users
Rich Web-based interface that shares the look and feel, the features and the
data of Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning
Improved integration with Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning by using the SOGo
Connector and the SOGo Integrator
Native compatibility for Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007 and 2010
Two-way synchronization support with any Microsoft ActiveSync-capable device
(Apple iOS, Android, Windows Phone, BlackBerry 10) or Outlook 2013
Excellent native integration with Apple software (OSX and iOS) and
Android-based devices
and many more! SOGo and our connectors are completely free.
