GroupWise:

GroupWise is Novell’s premier collaberation and electronic mail solution.

It is regarded as one of the top 3 eMail systems with over 40 million users world wide and surprisingly - growing.

Its key benefit features are:

  • GroupWise operates on

    • Windows Servers
    • Novell NetWare 4,5.x & 6, OES
    • Suse Linux

  • GroupWise operates with both the Microsoft Outlook Client and the native GroupWise Client


    • It has a VERY Low susceptibility to viruses and malicious code attacks – in fact the US Airforce and the Hilton Hotel chain in late 2002 replaced their Exchange solution for GroupWise because of the difficulty dealing with and managing malicious threats.

      GroupWise is relatively easy to recover from a critical failure. As a database system that sits “on top” of the operating system, should a failure occur, recovery is usually as easy as restoring from Backup which typically takes several hours. In Exchange critical failures are can be irreparable because of the security design each users security in Exchange must be connected back with that users security id in the operating system. The result is that a recovery often takes days, and then there is only a 50:50 chance.

    • GroupWise 7 and 8 includes Intellisync and Blackberry Server with 5 users ( Free)

      And

    • Windows Mobile devices

  • GroupWise will operate on a Novell Cluster
