IBM Verse freemium information


Tags :


IBM has opened the IBM Verse floodgates to attendees of IBM ConnectED and it seems we are getting the freemium model. Based on these specs here is what you can expect from freemium
IBM Verse Preview

We hope you'll find this to be a delightful experience. In addition to mail you also get:
  • Calendar, contacts, in-line attachment preview, one-click tracking of actions that need attention, and analytics-based identification of important people and content.
  • Upload, store, and share files with individuals, with up to 500MB personal file storage.
  • Send and receive instant messages.
  • Collaborate and interact with others by viewing profiles, status updates, and files.
  • Encourage others to collaborate with you by spreading the word about IBM Verse Preview so they can get their own account.
We want you to see how Verse helps declutter your inbox. You can:
  • Send up to 25 emails in a 24 hour period.
  • Send mail containing up to 10 recipients per email.
  • Send mail messages up to 100MB in size.
  • Have a mailbox quota of 500 MB.
  • Experience spam filtering for emails sent to outside domains.
If you pay special attention you will notice that there is a very extreme limit on how much you can use IBM Verse. I am sure to get the full benefit you would need to send way more than 25 messages per day. But it does not show a limit to the number of inbound.
