Incredible Uptime

Incredible Uptime

Microsoft servers go down so often that downtime is planned into IT activities. With Novell GroupWise, your system doesn’t tend to go down unless you take it down. GroupWise stays running far longer and more reliably than anything else. Viruses don't get through nearly as often to bring down your system. Think of what it would be like to do without Patch Tuesdays. With GroupWise, that's a reality.

Here's what GroupWise administrators have to say about GroupWise uptime:

"Currently our agency has about 110 GroupWise users, supporting the public across eight counties with a population of about 158,000. GroupWise has always been up to the challenge of handling our e-mail and scheduling needs for this population. We receive about 12,000 e-mails a week, and our virtualized NetWare/GroupWise servers never let us down. GroupWise has saved our agency from at least four or five e-mail worms that caused great havoc for other state agencies that were running Exchange." –Matt Merrell, Southeastern District Health Department, United States

"We now have more than 20,000 mailboxes currently running GroupWise 7.0.3. We have to say that the system runs itself. Overall, we have never lost any e-mails and our availability has been an average of 99.9 percent available monthly." –Karen Migliarini, City of Toronto, Canada

"In our 10 years of using GroupWise, it has never once become corrupt, suffered downtime or disappointed. With its versatile deployment options (WebAccess, remote, caching or direct), I have been able to meet the needs of all our users. I have three favorite features: 1) Proxy access—try that with Exchange! 2) Find—powerful, fast and accurate! 3) No viruses—can Outlook say that?" –Roger Anderson, Aerospace Distributors, United States

"GroupWise has been the main e-mail system for RBF since e-mail was introduced to the company. Many have lobbied to replace it with more expensive solutions, only to be completely stymied by three important facts: 1) Our company has had an accumulated post office downtime of 90 minutes in 20 years! 2) Our system has never been subjected to virus attacks, nor has it ever experienced any downtime due to one. 3) We have three post offices that continue to run flawlessly with more than 500 GB stored in each post office. It is obvious that there is no other e-mail system that even compares to GroupWise's stability." –Steve Tucker, RBF Consulting, United States
