Hi,
Meeting Maker has done a great deal to annoy people.
Yes. Once I find software which is doing the same stuff, I´m away.
So yes. In some cases they earned the flaming......
Indeed. It is mainly not the product, it is na my opinion more how they act as persons and as a company. Very arrogant very ... not helping.

mit freundlichen Gruessen

This discussion list I've sometimes termed the "Meeting Maker Flame List" as
some small set of users seem to prefer to continuously bash the product
instead of use the vast amount of knowledge the people on this list hold to
gain a better experience. There are still many people here that still like
and use the product.

Subject: You're scaring me...
Here at Keele University I have been tasked to find a shared calendar
solution that works with these new fangled PDA's and phones.
I was impressed with the number of Universities running Meeting Maker
and recently downloaded the evaluation copy. I've just abandoned that
as the new version doesn't support mobile clients directly and instead
works through Notify Link so there's no point in evaluating MMCO and
Intellisync. We're a mostly Linux shop here so the lack of a Linux
version of Notify Link until 2007 is a bit of a shame but I was still
happy to go with an evaluation of it once I can get a copy.
However I notice that on this list there's a lot of discontent with the
product and not a lot of support for the new 8.6 version with Notify
Link. This is scaring me and making me think that Meeting Maker isn't
the right choice after all.
Is there anyone out there with an 8.5.* version who is really happy with
the product?
Has anyone evaluated the new Notify Link product with 8.6 and decided to
deploy it?
What alternatives is everyone looking at?
