Openfire (formerly Wildfire) is a real-time collaboration (RTC) server dual-licensed under the Open Source GPL and commercially. It supports instant messaging, group chat, and VoIP and uses the only widely adopted open protocol for RTC, XMPP (also called Jabber). Openfire is incredibly easy to setup and adminster, but offers rock-solid security and performance.
Use Openfire in your organization as a more secure and feature-rich alternative to the consumer IM networks. Or, replace your existing EIM server with a more open, easier to use, and much less expensive solution.

Like many other people I tend to use instant messaging on a lot of different workstations: at home, at work, on my notebook and sometimes from abroad using the Jeti Applet. With the current generation of mobile phones, even these devices offer decent support for IM.
