### "Perfect tool for conversion from IBM lotus to cloud migration in office 365. "

May 21, 2019

5.0

It was a seamless migration process and experience. The type you relish.

Pros

It has a simple user interface which makes you familiar with it use in a very short time. I had the luxury of been able to save my items in either HTML, RTF or in TXT formats in office 365 and even some of my corrupt directory was even fixed and transferred effortlessly. It does what was it meant for and can Migrate the entire content of NSF files including appointments, emails and even addresses to Office 365 just in minutes. Remarkable customer support from the technical maintenance team. Their responses gives you the feeling they know their software thoroughly as their intuition is always right. They hold complete knowledge of the tool and its functioning, together with customer problems such that you have to explain less before they understand you.

Cons

I am naturally a very critical person which makes it startling that I could not find one negative thing to say about this tool. Keep up the good work.

### "Office Notes All in one"

January 10, 2020

5.0

Office 365 is for any type of users. users can make use of its standard features and there is no room for a personalized customization to the extend Lotus Notes allows. Office 365 is a suit of applications and they are separated by their functionality. Lotus Notes is a single screen all in one window. one can use it as a application and technically savvy person could even develop a complex application using it. Applications built for Notes include a wide variety of open standard technologies, like HTML, Java, JavaScript and Lotus Script. Developers who know these technologies could easily develop complex workflow using the frameworks and achieve a high end application.

Pros

Office suite plus development / customizable features

Cons

Non technical person may not able to utilize it fully

### "Simplify and speed up migration from old reliable tool to O365"

April 3, 2024

3.0

Company used Lotus Notes and domino since 30 years and we are not only talking about Mal Inbox. So it was a mess only to analyze how many functionalities , custom development and integration created during the years in this tool. Usage of migration tool and consultancy companies on this task is crucial.

Pros

For a company that owned Lotus Notes,Domino and also custom tools developed in IBM platform is a nightmare decide to decommission the solution and move everything on Office 365. Analisys was long and difficult, that's why a tool to sped up the process is essential

Cons

License costs are too expensive for a tool really important but that cover only a transition phase.

### "Competitive tools for users with tighter budget and maintenance capability"

July 20, 2022

4.0

Sufficiently positive for me. An idea is a quick guide to help less tech savvy users / admin to know the key selections and navigation design to shorten the learning time.

Pros

Works well for the purpose. No gimmicks that distract from the required purpose.

Cons

Intuitively, need users with some level of technology expertise to navigate this tool.

Reason for choosing Lotus Notes To Office 365 Migration

Some business lines are still using Lotus Notes, and this is needed to migrate and consolidate all to office 365 for enterprise consistency and easier maintenance.

3.0

I wasnt a big fan of the program i did not find it to be very user friendly, my company switch from this to a different program and it makes a world of differences now.

Pros

It does its job and provides you, your emails in a timely fashion.

I found it not to be very user friendly and there always seemed to be a weird issue with gaining access every so often.

### "Lotus Notes To Office 365 Migration - Transición sin contratiempos"

June 23, 2023

4.0

La migración de Lotus Notes a Office 365 fue un proceso desafiante al principio, pero valió la pena. Ahora disfruto de una mayor colaboración y flexibilidad con herramientas como Teams y SharePoint. Sin embargo, la curva de aprendizaje fue empinada y extraño la personalización avanzada que ofrecía Lotus Notes. Aunque los costos adicionales son algo a considerar, la escalabilidad y el soporte continuo son definitivamente ventajas clave

Pros

Permite una mayor integración y colaboración con la amplia gama de herramientas integradas a office 365, esto a su vez proporciona acceso fléxible y en tiempo real a los datos y aplicaciones desde cualquier lugar y con cualquier dispositivo con conexión a internet

Cons

Dependiendo del plan puede hacer costos asociados a la migración y a la suscripción a Office 365. En comparación con Lotus, la suite de office 365 puede tener limitaciones en términos de personalización. El Acceso a office 365 está condicionado a una conexión de internet estable

### "Veey user friendly "

December 18, 2019

5.0

I really enjoy the calendar portion of Lotus Notes the most. People can easily integrate meetings and info into my schedule and its easy for me to keep track of

Pros

Its extremely easy to navigate and use. I am not tech savvy at all and using Lotus notes was the main software in my position I caught onto almost immediately

Cons

The version we use doesn't have an extremely large amount of storage space like I would like so it does force me to delete files more often which I worry about at times but it hasn't been an issue this far

### "Just okay"

November 8, 2020

3.0

I find office 365 much more user friendly and more current with the times. Lotus notes always felt a little out of date to me.

Pros

Overall my experience with it was just okay. It worked for what I needed but didn’t have any great or unique features compared to competitors.

Cons

I found it to be slow at times and not always compatible with other user systems or recipients of some emails sent. Overall not my favorite system.

### "Lotus vs Office"

July 29, 2020

4.0

Office is the most user friendly application and I fully endorse it. In my experience adoptability is fast and the flexibility of changing setting to suit the user enables the user create his own experience.

Pros

Office 365 is user friendly application and flexible to cater to most of the user needs. The software syncs across all platforms enabling the user to work from anywhere from where he last left the application. Further as it's commonly used it interfaces with other 3rd party applications perfectly without any errors.

Cons

The software is a one for all so it's difficult to have a tailormade application for a specific industry. Therefore in some instances users will have access to components that they do not use or understand.
