IBM Lotus Domino Everyplace Access v4.2
Lotus Domino Everyplace Access installs on a base system that can be running a normal desktop operating system such as Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional. Installation was very straightforward, integrating seamlessly with Domino, however the configuration can prove to be a little more of a handful.
Due to the virtually unlimited configuration potential for this application, the actual configuration initially can seem quite overwhelming. However, it's structured in a way that if you are familiar with the standard Lotus Notes environment for routine configuration and administration tasks it will certainly be a lot more easier than trying to tackle one of the Microsoft Exchange-based packages on offer.
In fact, part of the configuration involves some of the initial administration. This means that the configuration settings and administration settings can easily be fine tuned per-user and per-device. There was excellent in-built support for individual mobile devices.
Due to its uniform standard interface accessed via Lotus Notes, the usability is very transparent. We found that all devices connected successfully to the environment via their supported interfaces.
If you are familiar with Lotus Domino server and Lotus Notes, especially if your current environment utilises this combination, then this is the application for you.
