Lotus Notes dumped in AMP cloud email move
Financial services giant AMP this afternoon revealed that it would ditch its Lotus Notes/Domino installation as part of a shift to Microsoft’s Outlook/Exchange platform hosted by CSC Australia.
The shift to a hosted platform was revealed this morning in a CSC statement touting the strength of its Australia-based cloud computing offering. But responding to questions this afternoon by email, AMP IT director of service management Sharmini Sivathas said it wasn’t a simple Exchange to hosted Exchange migration.
“AMP currently uses Lotus Notes managed by CSC,” she said.
The revelation adds AMP’s name to a long and growing list of large Australian organisations which have over the past several years revealed decisions to dump IBM-owned Notes for Microsoft’s platform – and sometimes Google’s Gmail.
