Does anyone know where the best place is to locate Oracle
Collaboration Suite skills for our site? they seem to be almost
non-existant in the market.
Also would be interested to hear opinions on Oracle Collaboration
Suite from real users.
TIA Alex

Yeah, depends what you are trying to do really, if you are trying to
recruit, forget it, probably only 20 or so OCS DBA's in the country.
If you want to buy in consultancy you can pay the earth at Oracle, or
go to one of the partner firms. We spent quite a bit of time hunting
for the right ones, and after a very bad and costly experience with
one of the so called 'Advantage Partners' we landed on a small but
really talented bunch called Amorvine Global. http://www.amorvine.com
they cost half of the other players and had us up and running in two
weeks! They are techies through and through, MD is a techie (Howard
Bell) We were so impressed we have bought their outsourcing service.

Apart from needing one or two patches from Oracle for OCS bugs,this
has been a rock solid platform. We are using it 24x7 round the world
ad it just does what it says on the tin, pretty much everything

Hope this helps you.
