Test drive Zimbras Collaboration Suite in Your Browser Now!
Written by Karl L. Gechlik | AskTheAdmin.com on August 3, 2007 – 10:55 am -Zimbra a popular open source Email server platform has put together a great comprehensive demo for you to check out. It is their Collaboration Suite Client that you can test drive. You get magically transformed into Dan Demouser and have a fully functional web client running. You can use it to send, receive and forward messages - but they will delete it 10 minutes (Edit: Actually 24 hours thanks Kevin!) or so after you are done. My address for the duration of the demo was lkaywo6pa6z3@demo.zimbra.com so expect something in this format.
But this demo can really open your eyes if you are stuck in the Exchange/Outlook platform. I was really impressed by the demo. It has every feature I could imagine - or that I went looking for. And for me this is a OWA killer. Whatcha guys think?
Here is the link and as always leave us your impressions, opinions or snide remarks in the comments. Don’t be shy Dan DemoUser! http://www.zimbra.com/demo (Thanks Again Kevin!)

Just remember, as someone once commented about when I first posted about Zimbra and getting away from MS where you can, “if you’re not using MS you wont be taken seriously.”

Glad you liked it Karl. It truly is a great product that will only get better.

This will let you create a demo account of your own. Accounts will last for about 24hrs. So plenty of time to test.

can this replace outlook on the desktop and owa on the fly. what about bes support?
and how about pricing?

I am loving it. I want to marry it, and have 12 children with it. I want to grow old with it, and be buried with it in a shallow grave just outside of town where that old gas station used to be. You know the one, where they had the soft serve ice cream.
I love soft serve ice cream. But not as much as Zimbra!
