Excerpt: IBM Notes (formerly IBM Lotus Notes) is the client of a collaborative client-server platform from IBM. The application server is called IBM Domino (formerly IBM Lotus Domino). In November 2012 IBM announced it would be dropping the Lotus brand and moving forward with the IBM brand only to identify products, including Notes and Domino. IBM Notes provides collaboration functionality - including email, calendaring, contacts management, file sharing, microblogging, and instant messaging - as well as access to other IBM Domino applications and databases. In versions 8.0 to 8.5.3, the office productivity suite IBM Lotus Symphony was integrated with the Notes client, but it was removed in version 9.0. IBM Notes can also be integrated with additional collaboration capabilities including voice and video conferencing, online meetings, file sharing, and microblogs though add-on products. The core IBM Notes client comes with applications for discussions, forums, blogs, and user directories. In addition to these standard applications the organization may use the IBM Domino Designer development environment and other tools to develop additional integrated applications such as request approval, workflow and document management. IBM Notes was originally created by Lotus Development Corp. in 1989. In 1995 Lotus was acquired by IBM and became known as the Lotus Development division of IBM. It is now part of the IBM Software and Systems Group. IBM describes the software as "an easy-to-use, single point of access to everything you need to get your work done quickly, including business applications, email, calendars, feeds, and more." Prior to release 4.5, the term Lotus Notes referred to both the client and server applications. As of March 21, 2013 IBM Notes was in release 9.0, with the official name IBM Notes 9 Social Edition. Whereas typical email applications are programmed to be an email client, IBM Notes is an application that is one of many application that runs on the IBM Domino
