Support Pack 4, GroupWise PDA Connect, GroupWise Migration Utility 2.0 for MS Exchange, “Sequoia”

Although Exchange 2000 was released in November 2000, and Exchange 2003 in September 2003, an atypically large number of companies remained on Exchange 5.5. Many chose that route to avoid the high cost and effort to upgrade. With Exchange 5.5 approaching end-of-life, companies on Exchange 5.5 are anxiously planning their exit.

Ron Blakley, Region of Durham

The Novell collaboration partner community has maintained strong growth over the past year. Partners continue to provide critical applications to GroupWise customers. In the past year key applications have been released providing mobility, security, regulatory and management solutions to name a few.

Novell Collaboration:
Why people choose GroupWise

GroupWise prioritizes Reliability

GroupWise prioritizes Security

Novell GroupWise
The GroupWise Philosophy for Collaboration

GroupWise compared to its competitors

69% less unplanned downtime

87% of GroupWise customers experience less than 10 hours of downtime per year

Only 44% of Exchange users claimed that they experience less than 10 hours of downtime per year

52% of users said their GroupWise system has not needed rebooting for over 6 months

Reliability
How GroupWise Rates

Source: Novell 2005 Collaboration Reliability Market Study of 607 collaboration managers

Vulnerabilities documented by CERT.org

GroupWise = 4

Notes / Domino = 67

Exchange / Outlook = 287

Security
How GroupWise Rates

Viruses

Average Server Downtime from Viruses:

GroupWise = 0 days

Exchange = 2 days

ICSA 2004 report: >$99K per virus, per company

Viruses affect both security (compromise system) and reliability (cause downtime). And their affects do not stay confined to your collaboration systems.

Security
How GroupWise Rates

Heritage Oaks Bank achieved a 501 percent return on investment (ROI) and payback in 2.4 months by switching from Microsoft Exchange 5.5 to Novell GroupWise 6.5.

—Nucleus Research, 2003

Users can depend on their collaboration system

Business costs decrease

Managers and Administrators feel confident

Net Affect of the Novell Approach to Collaboration

GroupWise Customers typically stay with latest version.

Each version typically delivers significant improved value.

Microsoft Exchange upgrades lag.

Many customers see little reason to upgrade.

70% of Exchange base is on outdated versions (“Microsoft Exchange and Outlook, Market Analysis, 2005-2009” February 2005, www.radicati.com)

32% on Exchange 5.5: final support ends this year

38% on Exchange 2000: free support ends this year

This is not due to product satisfaction
