[TYPO3-dev] Open-XChange vs. Kolab

[Elmar Hinz]

Hello,

often customers wish to access groupware functionalities by their website.
There are at least 4 strategies to achieve this:

1.) single sign on
2.) DB based native TYPO3 extension
3.) Adaption of a PHP-based DB groupware like eGroupware or PHProjekt
4.) native TYPO3 extensions as Fronteneds to a groupware server.

The most professional solution seems to be 4.) a real groupware server.
Each Frontend could access different groupware serves. But to start with
one, which one of the open source groupware servers do you think the best
solution and why?


a.) Open-XChange
b.) Kolab
c.) OpenGroupware
d.) Citadel
e.) Other
