I like that people are recognizing the need for free programs. Many startups cannot afford a full install of Microsoft server and desktop products.
Most of my experience has been with Microsoft products in the past. As I am no longer exclusively Microsoft, I have looked into some of these products.
I can say with confidence that users of Google Apps, Zoho and Mozy should be happy if they work within the limitations of each program. For a more traditional office productivity suite, I can recommend OpenOffice.org.
Good catch Russ!
