The software is good, but their business is awful, increasing prices threefold over night. Almost extorsion. Most of their clients left last year for other products or Open Spurce. Very sad. Very stupid.

Pros As an email server package, Communigate is very, very, reliable. It supports just about every, non-proprietary, email related standard you can imagine. And a number that I didn't know existed. As long as the underlying hardware is working, the program is generally rock-solid reliable. The tech support is great. The programers are clearly very bright. Cons It supports storing email internally in a number of formats (MDIR, MBOX, etc.) but has no easy way to convert between them should you make a suboptimal choice up front, or have reason to change later. And, as others have noted, it is not cheap.

Can't say it is beautiful, but it is so far (a year of use) flawless. Easy administration, no client-side issues to date, feature-rich, though can be used is a sensible modular way

I was just reading the Exchange reviews over at Eweek, and they chose CommuniGate.I had no idea that Communigate was the cheapest on the market. I was just looking at bynari and Kerio. I found that Kerio shut down thier mailing list because of so many crashes with thier Outlook module, and generally the word was stay far away from them. Well, I ditto that you get what you pay for. We bout Communigate last week, and are very happy with it. We had no idea it had IM included and a mailing list manager too. All this talk about Communigate being way too expenses, comparred to what? Freeware?

We recently where forced to update our e-mail server because EIMS was being flagged as an open rely and we were black listed. After several attempts to"Fix" EIMS we went with Communigate Pro because of recommendations from others who had gone through the same hell. And Communigate Pro seems to be one of a few that would pass all the blacklists tests. (EIMS and Apples Email server all say they aren't set up to be an open relay but they fail blacklist tests so you get flagged anyway). Sure it isn't cheap or free but you all know the saying you get what you pay for and with e-mail server software it is so true! We live in a world of almost uncontrollable SPAM and the good old days of using cheap/free software for throwing together an e-mail server without a concern for how SPAMMERS may abuse it are over. Perhaps there are better solutions for the PC world but on our Mac network this was a great upgrade. We were off the blacklists in lest than two days after installing the new server software and requesting removal. The Web Mail feature is great for our emlpoyees too!

wow, this product rocks. I installed it in a matter of minutes, and have Eyebeam finally working. We are only 9 people, but if this will do IM and email it is well worth the $600 bucks.

Cool technology, bad marketing. Sounds familiar? I've had no issues with this software until one day a couple of months ago, it started quitting every 90 minutes. For a couple of days, my email communication (and therefore my business) was in disarray, our service tech worked 10 hours to provide a fix which was to automatically start the server when it went down. When I got around to investigate the issue, I noticed that Stalker chose to build a time bomb into the software to make it expire on a certain date. If I had gotten any advance warning that it was going to happen, I might have found it acceptable. Unfortunately, the System gave no warning, the UI shows the license keys but does not decode them, so you do not know what you have licensed and when it is going to expire. Since then, I contacted Sales twice to get a proposition on how to extend my license and no reply. So, I now am an ex-customer. Other solutions, including Apple's Mac OS X Server Tiger, offer almost the same functionality at no extra cost. If you do not need ISP class service and are prepared to pay big money for it, stay away from Communigate.

Stalker Internet Mail Server (SIMS) -- hands down the best mail server for "Classic" Mac OS 7/8/9. Communigate Pro -- overly complicated, overpriced bloatware. Kerio got my company's money. ;-) Fast, easy, and actually AFFORDABLE for small companies like mine!

I guess Vlad is posting here as well. Sigh. The fact is that they have f*cked with all their clients. As several others have wrote on places all over the net - Stalker used to be one of the top companies with one of the best products. But they decided to screw their customers by raising prices fivefold and invoke a mandatory support and upgrade tax for new functions no one has asked for. Its a pity and it should be a lesson in Economics 101. Stay away from Stalker until they change its management.

This product is the best on the market, and hands down more features than anything out there. It is a shame to see little kids like Ofir write flat out lies on MAC sites, like he is installing 100k Exchange server site, yeah, so you did Intel or HP corporation? Wish Ofir would just get a life

Used to be the best, but due to bad management is now way too expensive and may contain a time bomb for when your license expires. Handle with care or better still - use something else.

Way too pricey. $1200 for 50 users. One can only guess what more than that will be. Beautiful program, but for the average company, out of the ballpark price tag. It also is incredibly impossible to figure out for a layman. Definitely do not jump into this if you are intimidated by massive interfaces or having to dig into a serious learning curve. Power is a wonderful thing, but without easy management, and an interface that isn't so cluttered as to seem like the cockpit of the space shuttle, getting around this beast takes a serious amount of time. Yes, there are skins for this puppy, but have fun getting them installed! Yes, I know the CGPro junkies around here love it, and flames I am sure will start because of this review, but most of those people are heavy tech people, if not coders themselves. So, if you are a small or medium-sized business and don't have time to tackle a serious learning curve, look at this at a later time when you do have time to learn it first.

This is simply the best server software I have ever used. In my life. And the support is worth a six star rating.
