Domino System Administration Products/Tools
Following up on the Lotus Notes/Domino Product Catalog I started a few weeks ago, below is a list (certainly incomplete) of Lotus Notes/Domino Administration tools. I'd like your help in both filling in the products I've missed, as well as figuring out what categories I should break them down into for easier searching. This list currently does not include email management, anti-virus, nor backup/restore products, I'll be posting them soon, but I wanted to get the information below out in the mean time.
Make sure to see the Lotus Domino Catalog on IBM.com, and the Global Solutions Directory Catalog and Business Partner Application Showcase on IBM PartnerWorld.
