Secure, reliable messaging has become a must-have. But simply keeping email flowing and viruses at bay is no longer enough. Today's messaging administrators find themselves dealing with migrations, disaster recovery, archiving requirements, a flood of spam, and users who want (or need) to dive into Instant Messaging (IM) and online collaboration. Solutions that can help you deal with all these demands quickly and efficiently are worth their weight in gigabytes. But don't take our word for it—instead, we'll take your word. (For more helpful products, you might also want to check out the winners in our Disaster Prevention and Recovery, Security, and Storage categories on pages 27, 48, and 55, respectively.)
