IBM Notes Browser Plug-in for Mac Modern web based Homepage Clicking on Mail will take you to Verse or Notes web Quick access to recently used applications Notes bookmarks available

Auto Update Tool (Cloud Only) Allows the user to have the new version (major release, hotfix, fix-pack) automatically downloaded and installed, without any additional administration effort. An Update server can handle auto update requests for multiple applications. The Download server could be multiple instances. A single installed version of AUT is shared by all ICS client applications. The AUT itself can be installed via a meta-installer, which is wrapped with the AUT agent runtime and references to the Update server The AUT is primarily about automatic updating of installed software products. However to get to the point where products can be updated, the AUT itself must be installed on the user's machine. There are several ways this can be accomplished.

IBM Client Application Access & IBM Verse

Coming Shortly : IBM Client Application Access 1.0.1

ICAA (Windows) limitations Application support  Not can be supported when running inside the browser Browser dependency  Firefox(10.3% desktop browser market share1) may stop supporting NPAPI. Firefox Electrolysis uses new WebExtensions api for addons (stable release in Firefox 48 ESR due in July 2016)  Edge may become more popular than Internet Explorer ( IE – 52.81%)  No Chrome support, whereas IBM Verse is supported on Chrome (26.21%)  IE issues with pop-up blocker and other settings Market Share: share.aspx?qprid=2&qpcustomd=0&qpcustomb=&qpsp=2015&qpnp=2&qptimeframe=Y&qpcustom= share.aspx?qprid=2&qpcustomd=0&qpcustomb=&qpsp=2015&qpnp=2&qptimeframe=Y&qpcustom=

ICAA (Windows) limitations (continued) Long running Notes actions lock up browser  Eg: A lotusscript agent taking more than a min to execute would block the browser for the entire duration. User can't work on other browser tabs. Notes Modal Dialogs (such as Ctrl-O) blocks the entire browser Notes and ICAA can not co-exist on Windows Conflict with other plug-ins  On IE, some Java plug-ins interfere with ICAA

IBM Client Application Access (Windows) – New Proposal Stand-alone ICAA application instead of a browser plug-in  Installed as a standalone application  Open as a separate window when launched  Subsequent application windows will open inside the same application as a separate tab.  Browser independent – Same experience for IBM Verse users working in any available browser – Not affected by browser updates – avoid significant effort in development/support of newer browsers & versions  Compliance with Notes application support – same as Notes basic client – support for Ricoh cases  Consistent with Mac ICAA

ICAA or NBP? IBM Notes Browser Plug-in  Continues with inside browser plug-in architecture  New updates only in fix-packs IBM Client Application Access  Parity of Mac & Windows – standalone application  New features as required  Standalone release independent of Notes releases
