Customer Migrations To Domino
From Exchange From Groupwise
41
Domino 6 Supports Worldwide Strategic Messaging and Collaboration Platform for International Distributor To develop a consistent global IT systems for its worldwide strategy, DKSH decided to replace its different systems--including Microsoft Exchange and Novell Groupwise---and deploy an advanced communication and collaboration infrastructure based on IBM Lotus Domino 6 servers. "One of the main reasons DSHK chose Domino is that it is a very self-contained system that does not depend much on the underlying platforms it runs on--whether that's Windows, Linux or another platform. From DKSH's perspective that meant that we could more quickly deploy our infrastructure and applications. “ "Second, we know from experience that Lotus Notes and Domino are more than just messaging. The system has lots of out-of the-box functionality we could build-on in developing workflows to support new company-wide administration processes. “ "Third, the ease of Domino 6 system administration is a big plus compared to Microsoft Exchange, and that will result in total cost of ownership savings. Server-centric features such as centralized, multilingual Notes client upgrades are a big step forward compared to the traditional way of pushing out new software“ Zoltan Peter Szabo, DKSH's Chief Information Officer

Collaboration thrives at Southern California Edison after switch to IBM Lotus software
When SCE's system had to be upgraded, the decision makers wanted to streamline the process. Users were on several different systems, so consolidation on a common platform was needed in order to make easier to support. But which system to choose? At the time Microsoft Exchange was SCE's primary system. Exchange offered and calendaring, but little else. SCE chose IBM Lotus Notes and Domino for its lower cost of ownership and powerful collaboration capabilities. "The Notes and Domino environment was easier to implement because of the way the components are integrated, and how they build upon each other," Pinter says. Lotus Notes and Domino are known for their robust security features. As a result, SCE's business has never been hurt by the wave of viruses and hacker attacks that have plagued corporate America in recent years. "The security functionality has turned out to be a real win for us," Pinter says. "We have not been affected by all the viruses other companies have. This has saved us significant time and money.“ "With Notes and Domino, when you build a new application you're basically reusing the collaboration and workflow engines and the applications you have already built“… "The reusability of basic infrastructure provides a significant return on investment.“ - Mike Pinter, Director of IT Infrastructure Services

Greif switches from Exchange to Domino for the applications and gets a windfall in the bargain
“Our migration from Microsoft Exchange and Outlook to Lotus Notes and Domino was one of the smartest tactical and logistical moves of my 12 year IT career. With Domino we've transformed slow, based processes into streamlined Domino applications we can share company-wide. And I'm convinced Domino positions us to integrate with far more back-end applications than we could with Exchange or any other solution.” “With Exchange we were basically running our business and sharing documents via e- mail, and revision control was difficult… Domino's TeamRoom application has minimized this problem for us, keeping all our shared documents in one central repository and eliminating the need for huge amounts of storage. “With our Domino servers, we have better performance, reliability and availability“…"The Domino servers either aren't going down at all, or with clustering we aren't noticing when they do. It's a much more robust system“ Since completing the switch-over from Outlook to Notes in September of 2002, the Greif Help Desk receives 30-40% fewer related calls each month."... "People are a lot more likely to get answers from the Notes Help” - James Hayes, System Analyst at Greif

Medical Device Maker Medex Cures Its Communication Ills With IBM Lotus Notes and Domino
Medex maintained two different groupware platforms - IBM Lotus Notes in Europe and Microsoft Exchange in the United States. The company wanted to standardize on a single platform worldwide … After examining the successes born from using Lotus Notes and Domino in Europe, and seeing the Lotus commitment to Web access, the company decided to standardize on the robust IBM messaging and collaboration platform. “We migrated our new employees from Microsoft Outlook and Exchange to IBM Lotus Notes and Domino because we needed efficient, secure Web-based . For us, an employee’s ability to access information quickly and securely from our website is an integral part of our business." "As Medex looked to its future, all plans regarding technology deployment pointed to Lotus. A key mission at Medex is to be responsive to our customers. Lotus Domino makes it simple for us to respond quickly and effectively to customer needs and/or requirements." - Cliff Oman, Vice President of Information Technology, Medex, Inc.

And the winner is… Editor's Choice: Lotus Domino/Notes
August 22, 2003 “The real battle between Lotus and Microsoft no longer rests on mere or calendaring.” “with Lotus Domino you have that multi-platform support that you don't quite get with Microsoft Exchange” “One of the great features of Lotus Domino is the Administrator tool.” Editor's Choice: Lotus Domino/Notes “many companies are showing an impressive return on investment with Lotus Domino and we're not surprised.
