The nightmare part was dealing with their support. Their support manager, Terry Erickson, is trying to squeeze $4000 out of me. I 've told him "go ahead and sue me," weasel.

Really, I can see how you provide a negative review based on your experienced shortcomings, but does that really qualify as a NIGHTMARE ? Or is there more you're not telling us... ________________________________ From: Derek Harris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2008 10:29 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: OT: GFI nightmares I used to have a pretty positive view of GFI, but I've had such a nightmare experience with them over the last month that I will never buy, or recommend that anyone else buy, another product from them. FaxMaker is a small-time, crap product that is not suitable for more than a handful of users. It is NOT, despite their claims, AD integrated: simply reading an e-mail address from AD doesn't qualify. They can claim Exchange 2007 compatibility, because it doesn't actually integrate, and doesn't use any features of Exchange; it is simply a small SMTP server, and each user has to be painstakingly setup within GFI. It may be a fine, low-cost solution for a small company, but the administrative burden is too high for more than a few users. I'm sticking with Omtool Genifax, even though it doesn't have an Exch 2007 connector yet -- it works for receiving with the SMTP connector, but I lost a lot of convenience that the Exch 2003 connector had.
