NEW YORK, NY -- 08/05/08 --
Scalix,
the award-winning Linux email, calendaring and messaging company, today
announced that it has received the prestigious 2008 InfoWorld "Bossie"
award for the
best open source collaboration alternative to
Microsoft Exchange.
After a highly competitive review process, InfoWorld concluded:
"'Enterprise' is the watchword here, since Scalix does a fine job using
Linux clustering and failover features for maximum uptime. Scalix's AJAX
console makes administration a snap, while the included Scalix ActiveSync
lets wireless devices connect directly to the server for push e-mail,
contact, and calendar updates."
"We are honored that our Scalix alternative to Microsoft Exchange has
received this prestigious InfoWorld 'Bossie' award two years in a row,"
said Andreas Typaldos, Xandros CEO.
"As Scalix continues to evolve into a central enterprise collaboration
platform and information hub easily accessed via universal clients of
choice, I'm sure it will have many more honors to come."
