Zimbra has been and is still great. The one con I can think of one the OSE version does not have a built-in capability for backup...though there's a lot of scripts available.Lacks AD integration (we don't use AD, so we don't care)
Lacks ActiveSync natively -

In version 7, you can enable it. However, in my version 8 test, I previously installed successfully the Zextras trial which includes the chat module. It did not expire when the trial does.Page 24 The Zextras Chat module is included in Zextras Suite 100% free of charge!Chat and Videochat: 100% Free of charge The Zextras Chat module is included in Zextras Suite 100% free of charge! The Zextras Chat Zimlet allows your users to communicate within the Zimbra Web Client, while desktop and mobile clients can connect via XMPP.Is this free? Yes, it is and it will always be! ZeXtras Chat is a free module of ZeXtras Suite, and will be functional even if your ZeXtras Suite trial is expired or if you don't have a valid ZeXtras Suite License installed.Is ZeXtras Chat free? Yes!I've also previously setup OpenFire/Spark bundle in my previous employer. Though it never saw the light of approval.
Regarding AD integration, I'm not sure I understand it though. I have successfully provisioned a server which can look-up the account password in AD, though its a separate account (manual creation of account--separate from AD), the password is the same as Zimbra looks it up. Lock the account up and the user can not log into Zimbra as well.

You do not need chat or drive, that's for sure. Memcached you want, even though it is not required.

Hi,how do I get back to the interactive config wizard, are you aware of how to do this, I ran the initial setup, and wish to edit but via that cli wizard.
I am sure it is in here somewhere:
/opt/zimbra/bin/ -

/opt/zimbra/bin/I think you can just run the installer again, I don't think that it makes a new binary for it.
