Lotus just announced the new LotusLive Notes! To get all the latest on it, check out the blog post from Ed Brill, the TMZ of Lotus. According to Ed, the "announcement marks the clear establishment of LotusLive as the leader in cloud collaboration. LotusLive Notes, enterprise-class mail, calendar, tasks, and instant messaging, lists at US$5/user/month, including a license for the Lotus Notes 8.5.2 client. While it matches the competition on key checkboxes like 25 GB mailbox quotas, rich messaging features, and ease of access, we beat up on Microsoft Exchange Online by running the latest version of our server software, including the Lotus Notes client in the base price, and including instant messaging in the base price. The Domino team has done an incredible engineering job to establish a true mutli-tenant Domino architecture, running in clustered pairs in multiple IBM data centers and integrated with the rest of LotusLive. We're bringing all our experience with 20 years in the messaging market and 50 years of data center operations. LotusLive Notes is a winner."
