Sams Teach Yourself Lotus Notes 5 in 10 Minutes

Rating:
Summary: Great reference book for users!
Review: As usual, Jane and Dorothy have a winner! We've used this book in conjunction with end-user training to provide clients with an effective resource after the class is over and the users go back to their desks. It really helps to cut down the number of helpdesk calls. It's also quite effective for helpdesk people too!

Summary: OK for the basic beginner only!
Review: Combined with some hands on advice and training this book is only useful for the person with few computer skills and no knowledge of Notes. If the person is computer literate, say with Microsoft Office, then the money is better spent with a more intermediate text such as Lotus Notes in 24hrs by Sams. For the money, I feel any user would be better off putting the money toward a more robust volume for the beginner/intermediate user. In our case, we wasted our money.

Summary: Good Overview and Reference Material for Those New to Domino
Review: For anyone new to the world of Lotus Domino, this book provides a good overview of the major features. I found it easy to read and well organized. It even has coverage of Domino Actioneer, a little discussed but handy program.

Summary: Great Training Tool!
Review: This is a great book for the Lotus Notes beginner and for anyone who needs to look up how to do a task quickly. The main thing I like about it is "no fluff." Everything is straight to the point with step by step instructions. Every Notes user should have a copy of this close at hand!

Review: This is terrific for people who need to learn about R5 fast. My colleagues and I have been able to get up to speed in little time. We were under a deadline (who isn't these days! ) and this resource did the trick for us. It is clear, well written, understandable and totally on target.

Summary: Great Training Tool!
Review: We use this as a guide for our end user training classes. It is a great reference for the students to take back to their desks. The lessons are easy to find and follow with plenty of screenshots. Also, the appendices offer great information on things like EMail Etiquette and Actioneer. Once again, Jane Calabria and Dorothy Burke simplify my life as an instructor.

Summary: great book for a beginner
Review: When I switched jobs I needed to learn Lotus notes for the first time. This book made it easy for me to get up to speed quickly. I think the ten minute lesson structure is a great format for learning it at work as well. I would buy more books like this one for other software.
