Unison Desktop™

Unison includes Unison Desktop™, a native desktop client. Running on either Windows or Linux, it replaces legacy clients such as Microsoft Outlook® or Lotus Notes®. Unison Desktop is easy to use and feels familiar to people who know other clients.

Overview

Unison TechnologiesUnison Desktop can do everything that a legacy e-mail client does today – and much more. Because it is fully-unified and works with Unison Server, a user sees all e-mail, instant messages, phone calls, voicemails, calendars and contacts in a single application.

To learn more, you should read our Unison Desktop feature list or view our overview slides and unified features. You can also try a Unison demo which lets you download the Unison Desktop client and test it using our managed Unison Servers.

Architecture

Unison Desktop is a native client with both a Windows and Linux version for end users. It runs on each user's desktop and connects to your company's central Unison Server.

From the Unison Desktop client, users get always-synchronized access to their e-mail, instant messages, telephone calls, voicemails, calendars, address books and more. They can also control settings such as 'out of office' notifications, telephone call forwarding and free/busy status – so colleagues always know how to reach them.
