thoughts

We have BES - answers below

1) What are your thoughts on BES? Does it work well? Does it correctly sync mail, calendar, contacts etc...?

Yes, just works. Sometimes you need to add a small config tweak to a new user to get contacts working properly, that's all

2) Do Blackberry users authenticate with their HTTP Notes Internet password? (Our users Windows password syncs with their Notes ID and HTTP password) I don't want them to have two sets of passwords.

No password required, once you activate a device for them it just works

3) Can BES be installed on our mail/home server or does it require its own dedicated Domino Server?

Not recommended to put it on the mail server, unless you're a very small company I guess. You'd need a separate server just doing BES

4) Does the BES license need to be renewed every year? Or once we buy it its ours for ever?

One-off purchase

5) Anything else I should know?
Not really, it's very simple once set up to use (although I've never used traveller so can't really compare)
