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 (Mac OS X and iOS) and Microsoft
Outlook.SSOGo is standard-compliant and supports CalDAV, CardDAV and

easy to deploy and interoperable with many applications.
