“Kerio holds its own against the big boys
in the areas of multiple server, mobile
messaging and full collaboration in terms
of features, performance and price. Its ease
of use makes Kerio’s improved messaging
solution a serious contender for company
email systems.”
PC Pro
“A well-established small-business
messaging and collaboration solution, Kerio
Connect can now be considered as an
alternative to large Exchange deployments.
Kerio Connect is well supported, and
particularly suitable for companies seeking
an Exchange replacement or deploying a
messaging/collaboration server for the first
time.”
