Zenbe for Business is Open for Business!
April 5th, 2009 by Peter Stern · comments · http://blog.zenbe.com/wiwznOh my! talk about overdue blogging.
We launched Zenbe for Business almost TWO WEEKS AGO! Its true. If you visit zenbe.com you will see a new website pomoting a new product. Its awesome, I have to say. I liked Zenbe Personal, don’t get me wrong, but Zenbe for Business is so much faster, works so much better, and of course has Shareflow, the collaboration tool that lets me happily move away from the morass of services me and the team had been using until now.
We offer a free 30 day trial, so sign up and check it out. Yes, we ask you for a credit card for the trial: that helps us keep out spammers, which improves the quality of our service. Equally important, it quiet the bonking sound from the game of whack-a-mole we had been playing with spammers, who are attracted to new email services like…. like… I should stop here.
Since you probably know all about Zenbe Personal, let me talk about the single largest innovation in Zenbe for Business. We call it Shareflow, again showing our mastery at creating unassuming names for phenomenally useful features.
Shareflow lets you create an interactive web page, invite people to it, and let everyone post comments, emails, events, files…. Of course everyone can use, find, and comment on anything in a Shareflow. Its simple and effective. I’ll comment on why Shareflow on exactly what Shareflow is effective at in an upcoming post, but in the meantime you can watch our simple demo….
Zenbe Personal, the popular free service, is still live and supported, but signup is still closed. You can login right from the new site, just use your zenbe username and password.

Your product looks great but $13/mo/user just to manage email from multiple domains is a little much. Try $5/mo/user per and were on. There are other really nice webmail/email providers that charge $2 or $3/mo/user. Sure your product looks better but hey sometimes you gotta buy the ford focus and not the aston-martin quattroporte.

I’m interested in the shareflow feature but only if it was free I hate to say. Too many awesome free things out there for me to need to pay for any web services. Big fan of zenbe personal, just getting in to lists.zenbe at the moment. Keep up the great work

I agree with what chico says. The competition from free or lower cost service providers will be very hard to overcome, especially at £50 a year for the value package. There is little or no real incentive for personal users to shift to business; is Zenbe’s long term aim to phase out personal (no pay) customers.
