Thursday, August 30th, 2012
A global enterprise customer with offices in Boston asked me "who else uses Lotus Notes in the Boston area?" I'd like to respond with a list of organizations. I'm not asking for contact names. If you are aware of organizations in the Boston that are presently using Lotus Notes, please post a comment.

1) Commerce Insurance
2) Brown Brothers
3) Blue cross blue shield
4) Tufts medical

And my next question is, why is this important!?
If the platform meets the bussines needs, go for it. And furthermore, one of the biggest IT companies in the world is behind this platform.

Michael, as I wrote in the blog post, the customer is already an enterprise use of Domino for close to two decades. As far as I know, they are happy with Lotus Notes. I believe their interest was that they wanted to network with other users of Lotus Notes or IBM Collaboration software in the area. Unrelated, I was looking to arange a meetup in Boston, but this request came from my customer.

For networking, they could join the friendly folks at the New England Lotus User Group: { Link }

Ahh, sorry i misunderstood. Thought they reconsidered the platform, based how many already used it in their local area ;-). Sorry.
Happy to see so many good enterprises using one of the best platforms i have worked with.

I work in Merrimack NH for a company that designs and builds medical devices. We use home built Notes apps to support our Manufacturing and Quality systems. We don't use it for messaging other than email sent from apps to users. We're small but it keeps our production floor going.

Hi Wayne. No Problem. Let me know if I can help. I run into this all the time. One thing I have found to be effective is to shift the conversation from technology to VALUE creation.
