bes 5.0 nightmare

Well BES 5.0, so far anyway, sucks. It sucks to get set up, the interface sucks, the it policy area looks like something that was designed as a rough draft on a white board and then just put into the product and so many other issues I really can't list them all.

    So...Peter...I am guessing that you agree with John, that we shouldn't be thinking of moving to 5.0 anytime soon? Casey

    I agree with you. It's a f***ing load of bollocks.

    Thank God for virtualization, so we can at least not have to do things the "old way" anymore.

    Meaning, when BES 5.0 breaks your Windows "box," at least you can virtually roll back to a clean "machine."

    And then start all over again. :-(

    bes 5 is killing me. bes 5 tricked me into putting itself as my sole beneficiary and now bes 5 is holding a pillow over my head and killing me.
