Maybe... Most 'groupware' doesn't do quite what the Exchange/Outlook
combination does.  One feature that is important to the group I
work with is that emailed meeting requests show up in the outlook
personal calendar whether the email is opened/accepted or not, and
that public calendars can accumulate and show what a group of people
will be doing. For example we use one for 'scheduled maintenance'
for a large group of people making changes on any network equipment
or servers so it is possible to notice potential conflicting changes
and back out things if problems are found later.
