IBM's Panasonic win points the way for enterprise collaboration services
,----[ Quote ]
| Panasonic has signed a deal with IBM to migrate
| its global workforce from Microsoft Exchange to
| IBM's hosted LotusLive service. IBM will
| initially migrate 100,000 employees to LotusLive
| iNotes, increasing to 300,000 over time. This is
| one of the largest commitments to cloud services
| by a global enterprise to date, and is a feather
| in the cap for IBM in its struggle with
| Microsoft for email and collaboration seats.
| However, in our opinion this is as much about
| delivering commodity services from the cloud as
| it is about IBM's win over Microsoft.
