In addition, you would be licensed for Sametime Limited Use/Entry, Quickr Entry, and some other software you might find useful. On the other hand, you'd have Lotus Notes, so there is no loss. You would be out of the new version of Microsoft Access, as Symphony doesn't have an equivalent one. You may not know this, but you could keep your old 2003/2007 Outlook if you really wanted.
#Ibm notes web access upgrade#
As there is no upgrade in-place, your outage is extended as each of the services are migrated - expect your series of outages to spread out across an entire weekend or longer. A Microsoft Small Business Server 2003 upgrade to 2008 (64bit - there is no 32bit) requires a migration. The Lotus Domino server takes about 15 minutes to upgrade in-place while the Domino services are stopped. We next factored in the maintenance upgrade time as a cost. If you like the ability to phone for help more than once, this support difference alone might be a deciding factor for some companies in both their time expenditure and their bottom line.

If you include Office Standard for each user in this analysis, then the savings for deploying SBS are basically lost, as well.Īnother clear advantage for Lotus Domino is that the Lotus Passport offering has unlimited phone in with call-back support, plus the web-based support. The savings for a Microsoft shop would be quickly lost. The real story is that Lotus Notes Express has a far less cost per user for the small business after the 1st year.

However, the savings are quickly lost moving forward past the first year. The actual cost for that Microsoft shop to trade in their retail boxes and go with Open Value may be far less than if it switched to Lotus Notes/Domino. Moreover, if a small business already has copies of Office Professional then you can see savings if switching to the Open Value Software Assurance than switching to Lotus, even including any likely Move2Lotus discounts.

Add the no-extra cost Sametime, Quickr Entry, Lotus Symphony office suite, and other IBM branded software that comes with the Lotus Passport Express offering, and Notes has a definite value advantage. With no trade-up or Move2Lotus pricing, the cost of Lotus Notes Collaboration Express is higher than a Microsoft Small Business Server 2008 Standard for the first year.
