Lotus Notes

A groupware application developed by Lotus, now part of IBM. Notes was one of the first applications to support a distributed database of documents that could be accessed by users across a LAN or WAN. Its sophisticated replication features enable users to work with local copies of documents and have their modifications propagated throughout an entire Notes network.

For many years, Notes was the only full-featured groupware solution.
