We at Kerio take a great pride at having built an efficient marketing team. We are looking to add someone who is passionate about the intersection of technology and customers - products management - and who wants to make a difference.
Yesterday's release of Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks has spawned many questions about compatibility with Kerio Connect and Kerio Control. We're happy to announce that both products work on and/or with Mavericks. The longer answer is that some manual (but temporary) workarounds may be necessary for proper operation.
Kerio Connect
Server
Kerio Connect 8.2.0 will run on Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks and Mavericks server without any issues.
Kerio Connect 8.2, a messaging and collaboration server that provides email, contacts and calendar management for more than 60,000 organizations worldwide.
Apple's iOS 7 is out and you're probably wondering about compatibility with Kerio Connect. iOS 7 contains many changes, not only in UI but also in Mail, Calendar and Contact applications.

Any channel partner network is a mixed bag of active and passive partners. We asked Elise Hymes, Kerio's Partner Program Manager, about her views on making the partner program valuable to all partners.
What do channel partners value the most in your experience with running the Kerio Partner Program?
The Kerio Partner Advisory Council, or PAC as we internally call it, helps us obtain input on channel initiatives early in the planning stages. Our Partner Program Manager, Elise Hymes, shares her thoughts on what makes channel PAC valuable for both members and vendors.
What is next for the Partner Advisory Council?
Getting the Cloud right in the channel partner environment is challenging for all SaaS vendors. Our Kerio Partner Program Manager Elise Hymes explains what helped Kerio partners to embrace Samepage.
How have Kerio partners responded to Samepage and cloud in general?
The partner community is learning to love the cloud and learning to love Samepage. It has been a slow relationship that has taken a longtime to develop; however, I think they are starting to see that Samepage and the cloud is the future - actually it is today.
Kerio Connect 8.2 will bring a new option to allow your personal assistant or colleague to access your Inbox and calendar.

This summer Kerio moved the Kerio Partner Portal from a third-party product to Samepage. I asked Elise Hymes, Partner Program Manager, what drove Kerio to deploy its Partner Portal on Samepage, as opposed to a specialized solution like Salesforce.

The previous Partner Portal was not well adopted. The number of partners who were actively logging in and using the portal was around 10%. On the backend, the management was difficult to use and had a very high learning curve.
