Gee, some great features Outlook/Exchange had, oh, 5 years ago+Which explains why customers are migrating from Notes in droves.IBM has made some valiant efforts to regain from the stagnant period after Notes 4/5, but too little too late.

Notes wins on function, Outlook win on e-mail user interface. Notes is much more than a e-mail client. there is no comparison.

You make no sense and I get the feeling you're a retard.

By that metric a ford taurus is better then a ferrari enzo. And the cockroach is better then humans by a factor of about a million. Popularity alone is only useful to trendies and idiots and I got a feeling you fit in the later.

That doens't make it better or user friendly. We also use Notes, and it's the worst programmed piece of software ever. At my former employer we used Outlook, and Outlook is absolutely the cream of the crop.

A lot of companies use Lotus Notes exclusively. Outlook is in use by probably more, but in a corporation setting and not on a personal use level, lotus notes is very popular. When I worked at 3M for example, that was their e-mail client of choice.

Your product looks interesting, but one comment. You may use terms like "user interfaces" and "plug ins" and "end users" in your business speak, but if you could tone down the techie speak just a tad, your message might reach a greater audience. I found myself trying to move from my everyday speak to your tech jargon and missing the actual function. Try simple English. It works well with a larger audience.

Outlook rules everything because it is used everywhere, just like Word. Whats the point in using Lotus or anything else.

It's obvious that you are attempting to be clever & witty but it just comes across as pathetic & desperate.

They've had something MS has never had in Outlook. Security. Lotus Notes is nothing for your average home user, its for businesses concerned about security and the database features are not bad, either. Don't get me wrong...at home I use Thunderbird which beats the living piss out of Outlook or Lotus any day, but Lotus DOES have its niche... |
