I am in the process of evaluating open source IM solutions for my firm and I was hoping to get some feedback from the community on some specific capabilities of OpenFire. I am looking to accomplish the following and would like any feedback from anyone who has tried to implement something similar.
Will OpenFire integrate with a portal solution such as Cisco’s Quad solution?
Can specific user IM groups be created? Can user (non-admin) also create and manage those groups?
Does OpenFire support nested groups (groups within groups)?
Can administrative communications or notifications be sent to all IM users and/or Groups?
