"HCL Notes: Still Reliable for Legacy Workflows, But Lags in Modern UX"

4/5

What do you like best about HCL Notes?

HCL Notes (formerly IBM Notes/Lotus Notes) still shines when it comes to enterprise-level email, calendar, and database-driven collaboration. Its tight integration with Domino Server allows for advanced application development and secure messaging. The offline functionality is robust, and its document-level security remains a strong point for organizations with strict compliance requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HCL Notes?

The user interface feels outdated, and the learning curve is steep, especially for new users. Integration with modern cloud-based tools (like Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, or Slack) is limited. The mobile app is functional but not user-friendly, and updates are not as frequent or innovative as competitors'. Some workflows feel clunky, and the overall user experience lags behind modern standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HCL Notes solving and how is that benefiting you?

HCL Notes is ideal for businesses that rely on custom-built Notes applications or need secure internal communications. It's particularly useful in industries like finance, legal, and government where data integrity, security, and auditability are critical. For organizations already deeply invested in Domino infrastructure, Notes continues to provide value with low latency and dependable performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
