I’ve been playing with eGroupware for a few weeks now. For an even more complete solution to handle LDAP (which eGroupware by itself does not have) and shared folders, etc. Take a look at eBox, it includes network management tools, proxy server, openVPN, LDAP w/ Samba, Jabber server (again eGroupware doesn’t have a live chat server by itself), E-mail server, firewall and still more, PLUS eGroupware for the calendar, contacts, etc.

What I like best about it is it is PHP and extremely extensible, eGroupware can become your CRM as well which Exhcange can’t handle.

Someone above mentioned having a WinMo phone, you can sync eGroupware with any winmo phone, your iphone, most nokia phones and anything else that supports syncml (most funambol clients work with egroupware), Thunderbird, etc… They even support iCal but I havent been able to get that to work :). Works great with syncml & evolution using synevolution for me and the small company I have it setup at.

Nice writeup….I’ll be downloading, installing and testing….if it works as well as is reported, I’ll have alot of clients running exchange happier than hell….they are very tired of being held over a barrel by M$ for features they heavily use…

We’ve been contemplating Zimbra to replace our very old Exchange 2000 server. My concern with them is that Yahoo owns them and my concerns over their stability/future make me pause. Well it looks like I have a lot of reading up to do now about eGW.

i have added a link to egroupware site.

hhumbert: the one major difference i can find that would make a difference between zimbra and eGW is that the high-end zimbra has MAPI support whereas eGW does not.
at least not yet.

So, how does this solution compare to Zimbra? I like Exchange, but have been forced on Zimbra recently. I’m getting used to it. But I use a Windows Mobile 6.1 device, and Outlook is pretty tight with that combination. Zimbra’s catching up.

Any comparisons?

This is just awesome!
I have been trying to find something that can replace our costly Exchange-servers.

One little pointer though…
I’ve noticed you seldom link your posts to the official site of the program you’re writing about. VERY annoying…
