Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It's scalable and stable.""IceWarp has multiple applications that are easy to use for many people.""The groupware module is the most valuable feature.""It has great communication capabilities for team chatting and web conferences.""The most valuable feature of IceWarp is the chat rooms and file-sharing, they are useful. It is convenient that everything is in one place. You can easily share and collaborate documents, making the program's unity a significant advantage.""The solution has a very good log-in to the UI when compared to other solutions.""Its price is the most valuable. It is definitely one of the lowest price solutions.""An effective, functional, very good tool for controlling resources."

"Mimecast has some good support services in place.""We're now certain business-critical mail is perfectly protected in multiple ways.""The most valuable feature of Mimecast Mailbox Continuity is real-time alerts.""The security is pretty good, and that's why we're going to upgrade to an even more advanced package. We used it when we had a power issue, and it works. It has been pretty reliable, and the support has been quite good.""It has all the features required for distribution, such as the ability to mail.""The Large File Send feature comes in handy when you have to send fairly large attachments."

Cons
"The user mailbox management is poor.""It's a little bit more expensive than the others."

More Barracuda Message Archiver Cons →

"With multiple databases for VOIP, chat and web IMAP, maintenance is cumbersome.""Our customers sometimes have problems receiving mail.""The exchange compatibility mode is rather limited. Their technical support can also be better. They only provide online support, and there should be some option for escalating.""It is difficult to disable user rights on the console so some users accidentally delete their documents or user details.""Although it is not a tool, video conferencing should be scalable and operate in a professional and efficient way.""I would like to have a trial for mobile applications and more documentation similar to Google Drive with mobile applications.""Although the documentation is extensive and in depth, you must familiarize yourself with it before taking full advantage of the product.""The tool's configuration capabilities are not straightforward. Apart from that, if I want to archive emails into a vault so that they can be retrieved again later, the integration doesn't work, and IceWarp crashes."

More IceWarp Cons →

"The solution is expensive in comparison to similar solutions.""The price of the solution is expensive. It can improve by reducing the price.""The interface and the documentation could be improved. They can also include some more training resources and content like video. While setting things up, I had to search for the information quite a bit. It took me time to find the correct way to do something. The information is there, but it is sort of all over the place. They can create a better help knowledge base or help portal. It retains your email for 45 days. They can maybe increase this duration.""The interface isn't the best. How everything works on the back end is confusing.""Technical support has been slower than it was in the past, likely due to the pandemic."
