Attachmate Corporation Chairman and CEO, Jeff Hawn, will invest in GroupWise "well beyond stated plans."


  • GroupWise® important to Attachmate Corporation market strategy
  • GroupWise roadmap and release schedule will be supported
  • Attachmate Corporation will invest in GroupWise R&D to meet customer needs

Whenever there's a change in ownership for a product, it can make customers nervous about the future. If you're a GroupWise customer, or thinking about becoming one, the future just became a lot more secure.

Jeff Hawn, Chairman and CEO of Attachmate Corporation, recently reaffirmed his support for Novell GroupWise. Not only will he continue offering the GroupWise product, but he is enthusiastic about it, and committed to developing it well into the future.


 Attachmate Corporation considers GroupWise an important part of our go-forward market strategy. It is a solution that is of great value to both our organization and customers.

We have already publicly stated that we will support existing roadmaps and release schedules across the Novell and SUSE product lines and that commitment includes GroupWise.

More importantly, we are committed to meeting GroupWise customers' needs well beyond these stated plans. We plan to leverage the collective expertise of the Novell team, invest in GroupWise R&D resources, and deliver key product capabilities customers require—including integration with collaboration products from Novell and others—over the long term. 

– Jeff Hawn, Attachmate Corporation Chairman and CEO
