My two bits

>>As I said I have been in this market for 14 + years and I have yet to see a migration ( regardless the direction ) happen for the endusers pressure. ALL those kind of decisions are taken at a higher level, trust me. We know this is not always a guarantee of a pure technical/business evaluation, there is politics involved, whatever you want.... but it never happens at the user level.<<

Never say never.

Pressure does issue up from users to management, and non-technical management will listen to the vocal ones. Whereas I would agree no end user would convince me to move to Exchange - unless I had lost the other two bits in my brain - they do pressure management via the political process and then I get the back pressure. So it may not be a direct process, but like the thorn under the saddle, it is the reason the rider gets rudely removed from the horse.

I recently received such pressure directly as a result of a case made by two users. Fyi of 4 Domino shops in this area I know of, one has moved to Exchange, one is likely going to move, one is likely not going to change any time soon and mine is safe for now.

Solus userus bonus, userus aegrotat.
