GroupWise is a messaging and collaboration platform from Novell that supports email, calendaring, personal information management, instant messaging, and document management. The GroupWise platform consists of desktop client software, which is available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, and the server software, which is supported on Windows Server and Linux.
The platform also supports WebAccess, its browser-based webmail client. Mobile access to messaging, calendaring, contacts and other data from smartphones and tablet computers is supported (through the Novell Data Synchronizer server software) via the Exchange ActiveSync protocol. Enterprise instant messaging and presence is handled by Novell Messenger, which integrates with GroupWise.
The latest generation of the platform is GroupWise 2014 R2.
GroupWise operates on a number of server and workstation platforms, including Linux and Windows for the server software (support for NetWare was discontinued in GroupWise 2012). Client software is supported on Windows and a Java client operates on Linux and Mac OS X. GroupWise connectors also exists for Microsoft Outlook (although it is no longer supported) and for Evolution.
