Customer Testimonials
These are real comments from real customers on their experience of Kerio Connect
"We are extremely pleased with the Kerio Connect product in our company environment. Ekay are an advertising agency with a mixed platform environment of Mac and PC workstations and servers. Previously we were running Exchange on some legacy server hardware. When upgrading we looked at several products for the cost and feature set available. We chose Kerio for its ease of migration from Exchange, the security and the extensive feature set" Mark Ransom, Ekay.
"After using Apple's poor mail server, and a spell with a Windows based product, I needed a quick and highly secure solution to run on an OS X platform. The answer has been Kerio Connect. It is simply superb; quick and easy to configure. I'm impressed by its spam, open relay and virus protection options. Stability is second to none. We've never had to restart in the 18 months Kerio has been running. My users like their IMAP accounts, especially with the webmail. This allows them to respond to customers' requests day and night. We are looking forward to future releases" Dion Mack, The Bridge Advertising Agency
