"Support is very good."
"Exchange is easy to use. It also has a built-in calendar for all the stuff I'm supposed to be looking at and doing. Exchange tells you if you have a doctor's appointment or a scheduled call. It also has a place to store and manage your contacts. If I want to add a new contact, it will put in information about that contact stored anywhere within the Microsoft Suite."
"The solution could improve Kubernetes or Dockers migration to new environments in the cloud."
"The client version of this solution could be faster and be made simpler for non-IT users. You will need to have some knowledge of Notes to correctly install this solution."

"The product's user interface is one of its shortcomings since it is outdated, making it an area for improvement."
"The solution is expensive."
"HCL Domino could have a better interface."
"An area for improvement in HCL Domino is security. New enhancements in the IT industry mean that security should be improved. The HCL Domino GUI also needs improvement."
"Designing a new template could provide a refreshed visual experience for users without significant changes to the underlying functionality."
"In our current situation, the disappearance of sanctions would be a tangible improvement. We are basically cut off from technical support and it's very difficult to obtain any updates."
"We would prefer to be able to manage the solution on the cloud."
"Exchange can be a little finicky, sometimes, or flakey. Last week, for example, I had gone into my calendar to check on some briefings that I had established, and then went back into my inbox, and suddenly the view had changed. I had no idea what it was that I had done, and I couldn't figure out how to get that view back. I took a productivity hit as a result of that, trying to fix it, due to the fact that it just wasn't what I wanted. It wasn't what I was used to working with. Two different tech support people had to work with me in order to get the view back to what I wanted just so I could be productive."
"They keep making all these changes, and our system was down for four or five days. They finally got it up, but there are still lots of quirks."
"The security features could be improved. There should be a better policy management system."
"There is a lot of spam email that comes in, so they should add functionality to help fix this problem."
"If it was the same product, and slightly cheaper, that would be amazing."
"Currently, its administration is too cumbersome. It's unwieldy. It's slow. It consumes too many resources. Configuration needs to be much more streamlined and administratively automated."
