I've used Kerio Connect for 140 mailboxes. No problems - it was bulletproof. Upgrades happened without issues. The times I contacted support were to ask questions, not because something wasn't working, and I found that they were quick to reply and knowledgeable.

We use connect for 100 users in a mac environment and it seems fine. Also seems to work ok with outlook. No idea about control.

Actually this and papercut are about the only things that give me no trouble at all.

I've used Kerio Connect (and Mail Server before that) with about 40 users for about 5 years without any issues. This includes moving the data store to a new server and also having 'smartphones' connect to it using ActiveSync.

Outlook clients need to install some basic software and this needs to get upgraded each time the Connect software is upgraded.

It's quite easy to admin and I've never had any issues with it.
