Does anyone know if Everdesk is still being developed?

Thanks.

I use Everdesk Optima everyday, as my central workspace. Now and then I receive a link to download beta versions. So, although it is not as fast as I desired, it seems that development is alive.

FYI, EverDesk http://www.everdesk.com/ has now a new product out, replacing Mail and Optima. The new product is significantly revamped and includes a version which works with Google services, including mail, calendar and documents.

Yes, I had very high hopes of Everdesk, after playing with it some years ago. I’ve had a really good bashing of the tyres of the latest version, and while the concept is still impressive, I’m not over-impressed by the execution. I was rather hoping to use it in conjunction with Soonr.com (kind of corporate Dropbox equivalent) to create a truly amazing collaborative environment (using shared folders for mail AND documents - a bloody obvious idea that nobody except Everdesk seems to want to take seriously; after all, e-mails are just another kind of file). But it’s just a little bit too quirky - and in my view, the interface has also taken a step backwards to being too fiddly. So never mind.

For the collaboratively inclined (Alexander), you might want to take a close look at a very successful recent German startup, SquadMail, which allows you to share any folders from existing IMAP accounts with anybody you like - multiple accounts, multiple folders. It takes a bit of thought to get your head round it, but it amounts to a kind of Dropbox for e-mail. Now that is clever!
