So should I replace my Lotus Notes/Domino infrastructure that is rock solid(but old), hasn't crashed in years and is competently run by two staff with a user base of over 4000, on 10 servers that handle SMTP Routing, eMail, workflow applications, mobile connectivity, instant messaging and document sharing?
Or... replace it with 20 MS servers that run only on MS operating systems and 10 people?
Or... just upgrade to a new version of Notes/Domino in less than an hour, and have an excellent web mail and web development platform? Running on the same number of servers (possibly even less!) with the same number of admin staff (2)
Or... cobble together some foreign language solution with Google's less secure, less intuitive, less extensible flavor of the month product that looks like it's ready to pop ads up any second ( I know it doesn't but it still looks like a consumer toy).
I think I'll just upgrade, because in this case: less !=more and more !=more either.
