Still don’t get it. My understanding is: - Openchange and Outlook Anywhere setup should be used for Outlook 2010 - SOGo built-in ActiveSync for Outlook 2013 - SOGo built-in ActiveSync for Android and iOS devices - IMAP/CalDav/CardDav for Thunderbird and alike clients Am I missing something? Why use Funambol or GetOut? Is there a reason to get some +funccionality or is that just an alternative to the above? Thanks and Regards Martin.
