Zimbra has more than four million paid Zimbra mailboxes globally through onsite deployments and its hosted partner program. "The worldwide growth we have experienced since launching a year ago is a clear indication that the market is ready for a collaboration alternative with a strong foundation in innovation and open source," said Satish Dharmaraj, Zimbra CEO and co-founder.
Zimbra has added new strategic partnerships and expanded its relationship with Mozilla, RedHat and Jive Software. Additionally, many open source companies and projects serve key roles in the ZCS and the Zimbra ecosystem, including Apache, ClamAV, Debian Linux, MySQL, OpenLDAP, Postfix, Sleepycat, SpamAssassin, SUSE Linux and Ubuntu. In early 2006, Zimbra co-founded and launched the OpenAJAX alliance with BEA, Google, IBM, Oracle, Red Hat, Yahoo! and Zend.
The ZCS 4.0 Open Source Edition is free. The commercially supported ZCS Network Edition is available for a 60-day free trial on the Zimbra web site. ZCS 4.0 Network Edition pricing starts at USD 25/mailbox/year for a minimum of 25 users for the Standard Edition, which includes product support as well as software subscriptions to new releases, updates and patches.
