MarvelClient

Advanced Client Management

Recent surveys confirm that client management remains a concern for many Notes administrators. Common complaints include: not having enough control over Notes users or their sessions, uncontrolled growth of mail files leading to traffic problems and infrastructure problems, a need to manage icons and bookmarks without disrupting end users, and not enough administrators to support the vast number of users.
