Openfire is by far the easiest Jabber implementation I've ever had the pleasure of installing, setting up and administering.
However, in utilizing open source licensing, and a great plugin API, Openfire is a lot more than just a Jabber server.
Another great use for Openfire is the ability to control corporate IM connectivity by setting it up as a gateway server between services like AIM & MSN and your users.
From a singular client, your users can have both their corporate and private contacts.
If youíre looking for a very powerful and easy to use corporate / public jabber implementation, you really should check out Openfire.

Hi Robin, I was curious to know how does Cisco Jabber work? I mean what all windows services are required to run in background on windows 10, for it to keep working correctly? And say, for example, if I want to block any incoming calls from landing on my Jabber softphone client, is it possible by stopping any particular windows services? Or any other way, on an enterprise Windows installation?
