What do you like best about the product?
It just works. It stays up, it's fast & lean.

Built on solid Samba foundations for dependable SMB services to Windows clients.

Strong on configuration visibility
What do you dislike about the product?
Not yet an integrated tool to manage file or folder level permissions.
No dashboard to view overall health or highlight errors occurring in the file servers. Samba logs and logging options can be complex. Univention could add some value to this by consolidating and filtering logs to show the key performance indicators.
When a needed samba or other /etc option is not in the gui, the flow from setting the option in the univention registry through to the generated conf file is not easy to follow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Core file serving
Windows domain user authentication

Flawlessly scaled from 5 to 55 users with no configuration changes.
Completely reliable as a virtual machine.
Easy to access administration with browser control panel.

Licencing - cheaper, no time wasted on licence admin
Simpler - no version/edition obfuscation
Extensible - lots of modules available
