Talk:HCL Notes

Number of installed seats

"Since that time, the installed base of Lotus Notes has nearly tripled from an estimated 42 million seats in September 1998 to more than 120 million in 2006."

I don't see a source for these figures. The number seems rather inflated - - are these 120 million seats counting R6 and R7 upgrades twice? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.109.196.222 (talk • contribs) 10:45, April 12, 2006 (UTC)

These figures are commonly known as sold by IBM sales. The number of seats USED is a different number. No product over a certain size can be cited accurately for seats and these numbers are as good as any.

Someone please edit "Nowadays..."

"Nowadays Java is also integrated in Lotus Notes, as is JavaScript." This sounds horrible. I'm not a writer, so please, someone fix this sentence. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 155.201.35.50 (talk • contribs) 16:15, January 27, 2006 (UTC)

Elided comments about Notes as an email client

The comments don't seem to be supported except by reference to the site http://lotusnotessucks.4t.com/index.html - hardly NPOV.

this might be a stupid question

What's the difference b/tw Lotus Notes with Messaging User License and Lotus Notes with Collaboration User License? Like the subject reads, this might be a stupid question, but I've never encountered this software, and I'm one of those non-techy types.

Messaging user license seems to require your have a server license as well for each CPU, Collab. User Lic. license covers both server and client, but is limited in size of userbase and some of the notes multi server features are not available. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.194.249.170 (talk • contribs) 14:35, June 6, 2006 (UTC)

--RhsAtRhs 19 Aug 2006 -- You are confusing two questions. First there's Messaging vs. Collaboration licensing. Second, there's regular vs. "Express" licensing. Messaging lets you use mail, calendar, and some simple IBM-supplied application templates. Collaboration lets you use everything just mentioned, plus custom applications developed in-house, by consultants, or by ISVs. Customers can buy either Messaging or Collaboration liceneses in either of two ways. Anyone can buy the regular way, which involves paying per server CPU and per client. Customers with 1000 or fewer seats can buy "Express" licenses (either Messaging Express or Collaboration Express), which involves paying only for client licenses because servers are free in this license model.

Can Lotus Notes be used at home?

I am told that the drawback to using Lotus Notes at the office is that some people can't access it from their home computer. True? False? What are the details on that? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.118.222.165 (talk • contribs) 00:14, October 22, 2006 (UTC)

--RhsAtRhs 23 Oct 2006 --False. Notes was explicitly designed for remote access and off-line work. It has a very long history of offering multiple solutions for support of users who are not connected to the same network as their servers. It had its own dial-in mechanism, its own encrypted network connections and its own indirect access (called "passthrough servers") long before LAN dial-in, VPN solutions and reverse proxies were generally available for other solutions. And Domino has supported web access to mail and applications since 1996. So, the only reasons someone wouldn't be able to use Notes from home are: (a) they don't have a computer, and (b) their company won't let them.

IBM/HCL Partnership

In Q3 2017 IBM sold rights to the Notes and Domino source code core technology along with IBM Sametime, IBM Traveler and IBM Verse to Hindustan Computers Limited (HCL) and the two companies entered into a partnership to move the products forward.

HCL Domino → ? – Due to WP:COMMONNAME and WP:PRIMARYTOPIC which sides more with 'Notes' rather than 'Domino'. (Looking at Google Trends also shows me that Notes has always had more searches with all three brands vs Domino). I propose either moving it to HCL Notes or have it as a compromise of HCL Notes and Domino. Chifonr (talk) 17:44, 22 October 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. BegbertBiggs (talk) 22:23, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

• Use HCL Notes with redirects from HCL Notes and Domino and HCL Domino and Notes. The longtime name is "Notes", originating with Lotus -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 11:57, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
