Editions: User Types

Flexible, cost-effective email for everyone.

You have the option to choose between a standard and premium user type for each of your users. Standard Users are free, and any number of Standard Users can be provisioned on any Scalix product edition. Premium Users are licensed.

Standard Users get the following client capabilities:

Scalix Web Access operating in Standard mode, providing email and personal calendaring
Evolution operating in Standard mode, providing email and individual calendaring
Support of any POP3/IMAP client
Scalix Mobile Web Client

Premium Users get all Standard User capabilities, plus:

Full feature, native MAPI support of Microsoft Outlook clients
Scalix Web Access operating in Premium mode, which additionally provides collaboration features:

Group scheduling including free/busy lookup
Public folders
Mailbox delegation functions
Permission controlled access to other users’ folders

Evolution operating in Premium mode, providing the full Evolution feature set
Wireless email with PIM via optional NotifyLink (available for Premium Users on Enterprise Edition and Small Business Edition)

Having freedom of choice in user types allows you to provide email to all your users in the most cost-effective manner. For example, manufacturers often provision headquarters staff as Premium Users, giving them advanced groupware capabilities, and provision less demanding plant personnel as Standard Users, giving them email and individual calendaring. Similarly, educational institutions may decide that faculty and staff should be provisioned as Premium Users while students would be satisfied as Standard Users.
