Groups

GroupWare allows a group of people to share data:

• Calendar Information
• Contact Information
• Email information

In conjunction with GroupWare the ability to define group accounts provides a powerful collaboration process. A group account contains a list of member accounts, which could be user, mailing list, or even other group accounts.

Groups can be given access to any shared folders defined on the system.

Individual users can share their calendar and contact information with groups, as well as individual users.

Emails can be sent to group accounts, which will be routed to all members of the group.

This functionality gives the ability to, for example, create a group for a corporate department, and define a common data store (shared folder), common address book and common calendar. Any changes to data in these common stores are immediately available to all members of that store.

Combining this powerful functionality with the fact that GroupWare is accessible through IceWarp WebClient, means that users never need to be out of touch or in possession of out-dated information.

IceWarp Server also provides a plug-in for MS Outlook, the IceWarp Outlook Sync that allows offline GroupWare functionality directly from Outlook itself.

Simple administration keeps the maintenance of group accounts at a minimum.
