Why Shookie, that's the nicest thing you've ever said to me! :-) To the OP: Ken gave you a great answer. If I were going in as a consultant for this type of engagement, the first thing I would do would be to survey the existing Notes environment - how many servers, what capabilities of Notes are being used, how much workflow is being used, whether iNotes is in use, etc. etc. Then, you crunch the numbers and decide what pain level you are willing to absorb. ;-) In this case, pain includes the dollars to spend on automation, the dollars to spend on SharePoint development, user training, etc. etc. Now, if your company has 10 people, that's a really different discussion than if your company has 1,000 people or 10,000 people.

RE: Lotus Notes to Exchange conversion
Really, I think the (free) Transporter suite works just fine for email/calendar/contacts. But it is a product that requires you to pay attention. There is nothing equivalent to iNotes templates in Exchange. You'll need to do custom development in SharePoint to make that happen. I have no experience with the Sunbelt Email Archiver, but our host here provides that and it is worth a look. Personally, I prefer to combine my e-mail archival along with my DR and backup - that gives you solutions like AppAssure and NearPoint from Mimosa. (ObDisclaimer: both of those companies have tried to hire me, but I said 'no'.) The Notes databases - those are the PROBLEM. Exchange doesn't have a good solution if those are applications. You are going to have to evaluate pretty much every single one of them individually to decide what to do. That is where tools like the one from Quest come into play. They can help simplify the effort involved in the migration of applications. You can look at vendors like Quest, CompuSven, Casahl - all have different solutions at different price points. That is - different pain points. :-) Regards, Michael B.
