Zimbra: Next Generation Email and Collaboration

Zimbra is an enterprise-class, open source email, calendar and collaboration platform. Zimbra simplifies IT with more efficient administration and flexible deployment options - both in the cloud or on premises. With the most innovative Web application available, Zimbra boosts end user productivity on any device or desktop - any time, any place - at dramatically lower costs compared to other providers.

Zimbra's innovative email, calendar and collaboration platform offers administrators and their end users innovative features that solve the challenges faced by organisations that use today's legacy communications infrastructure. Key advantages include advanced Web collaboration, compatibility with all desktop clients, over-the-air sync to smartphones (iPhone, Android, BlackBerry) as well as better scalability and ease of maintenance. Zimbra's open standards and technologies provide the flexibility to integrate new applications as 'tabs' or mash-ups in the user experience (such as Salesforce.com, WebEx, Facebook or internal applications like Oracle).

Designed for virtualisation, Zimbra delivers faster provisioning and easier administration with built-in support for high availability, disaster recovery, backup and lifecycle management using VMware vSphere. Zimbra simplifies all of those critical functions through easy-to-use, Web-based administration and enables organisations to deploy and manage email and collaboration with fewer resources, lower costs and less risk - in the cloud or on premises.
