Not dead yet

People are still buying in though. Like us.

I did the usual circuit of email app reviews and I just couldn't justify Notes - too expensive.

BUT the game changed. I wrote a couple of Rails apps to manage some internal company processes and they caught the eye of the CEO. When it came to the point where I had to worry about security, access control etc. I realised that I could do all this easily with Notes. The cost of Notes suddenly seemed small. IBM were helpful and found the most cost-effective way of getting the system in, and I am just rolling out the first of the new apps. Its only simple, but we are underway.

And I couldn't have written it with Exchange!
