I am aware of a large number of migrations over the last 3 years, but the striking feature in all of them is Domino is still active and running. In some cases Notes clients are still on all the desktops running apps. In just about all cases the TCO has increased and so has complexity.
I wonder why the IT media or analysts never talk about this ? I suppose it is just not trendy.
Anyway if you have a glowing example let it be known.
Make sure you get the most out of your Notes 9 client upgrade from the start (part 2)
Fri, Apr 12th 2013 12:52a Adam Osborne In our previous post on the subject we highlighted the fragmentation introduced during our client upgrade and how Defrag.NSF for Notes removed that fragmentation automatically when we started the Notes Client. http://ab1osborne.blogspot.com.au/2013/04/make-sure-you-get-most-out-of-your.html As a result of that post we received some questions, here are some topics/questions that people were interested in knowing more about. Q. So what does "Defrag.NSF for Notes" do? A. Defrag.NSF for Notes de [read] Keywords: domino

Warning - There is no basic Widget support in iNotes 9
Thu, Apr 4th 2013 4:49p Adam Osborne This one caught us by surprise - the bottom line is the 8.X technique for adding a Widget to the iNotes Mail outline no longer works. It is summed up by this line in Technote 1627817 "In iNotes 9.0, the Widgets folder in the Mail outline is no longer supported. The documentation surrounding this feature remains in the iNotes 9.0 documentation but does not apply to iNotes 9.0." Go ahead, read it again ... Instead of using the old technique of a single XML file, you need to follow the proced [read] Keywords: inotes

Make sure you get the most out of your Notes 9 client upgrade right from the start
Thu, Apr 4th 2013 4:28p Adam Osborne If you're installing or just installed Notes 9 you might want to consider a Defrag to defragment any new fragmented files. Below is an example of what happened on one of our clients when we recently upgraded from Notes 8.5.3 to Notes 9. Prior to installation the Notes Program and Data directories were completely defrag via the Defrag.NSF for Notes Client which is fully automated to maintain the client's files. After the install we see the following in Defrag.NSF for Notes log file: [2013-0 [read] Keywords: lotus

Adding a World clock to iNotes for your traveling users
Thu, Feb 28th 2013 11:25a Adam Osborne Here's how to configure a handy World Clock widget for inotes. You can allow users to create their own widgets but here we are just setting a widget that will be available to all inotes users on a particular server and cannot be removed by the users. First if you haven't already done so, you would need to enable widgets in inotes by checking the following mail policy setting on the Lotus iNotes -> Configuration tab of a Mail policy settings document: Now the "Widgets" folder wil [read] Keywords: domino

ND9 - First Impression, lose the Emo colour scheme.
Thu, Dec 13th 2012 4:25p Adam Osborne There is so much to like in the ND9 Beta, but seriously what is with the black and white IBM Social Theme ! I love colour. Luckily you can change the scheme back via Preferences, Windows and Themes. Once colour is reintroduced, everything like much brighter and the layouts are clearer. I realise that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so I hope IBM pole other people's options before they make this the new default. [read] Keywords: ibm

What actually makes Defrag.NSF different from other Defraggers ?
Tue, Nov 27th 2012 5:42p Adam Osborne Often we are asked "What actually makes Defrag.NSF different from the other defragmentation programs out there, or even the Windows defrag utility?" There is actually a big difference between Defrag.NSF and the common Windows defrag program. We have designed the Defrag.NSF defrag engines from the ground up to handle the very unique/specific and demanding range of characteristics found when dealing with fragmentation on a Domino server. Some quick points would include the following (and there [read] Keywords: domino
