Domino is and has always been the fastest rapid development platform enabling IT teams to respond to application/process requirements within hours or days compared to other tech platforms that would require weeks or months til delivery.

Another important plus for Domino is it’s scalability when it comes to running multiple functions such as email, apps and chat and more on a single server where other vendors would need several servers thus the cost of operations of Domino is outstandingly attractive.

It’s difficult to name real downsides running the Domino platform. It‘s an application and collaboration and messaging platform and the appearance/UI of apps strongly depends on the developers. Just writing that since the „old school“ UI has in some cases been a point of criticism. But honestly, it’s not the platform, it’s the capability and feeling for good design of the respective development team that makes apps work well and look modern.

Inbuilt layered security that is fully integrated with the Domino Directory, along with many security enhancements added to version 14.
