We all know that spam wastes a lot of our time. IDC recently reported that lost time as a result of spam costs businesses a lot of money.

Many small businesses do not have a shared contact management system, so they have difficulty tracking down phone numbers or addresses for customers, suppliers, or even work associates.
SCOoffice Server solves this problem because it lets you share contact lists. Users and administrators may determine who has access to the shared list and what rights they have to the list. For example, a user can indicate that Bob and Sally can see the contact list, but only Sally may change the information.

SCOoffice Server integrates server-side antivirus and anti-spam out of the box. Exchange doesn’t: You need to purchase a third-party add-on.
SCOoffice Server stores each message as a text file, which limits corruption. Exchange appends each message to a single database file. If that file becomes corrupt, then the chances of losing all data is pretty good.

SCOoffice Server provides Web-based administration; Exchange doesn’t.
