Does Alfresco Labs contain all the features of Enterprise?

hamdodger

I am looking to evaluate Alfresco, and have a number of very strong Linux administrations within my organization.

Is there any reason (outside of the support aspect) that I wouldn't simply use the Alfresco Labs 3.0 version, versus a fully licensed Alfresco Enterprise 3.0 subscription? Does the Labs version contain all the same functionality as the corporate supported Enterprise version?

I'm not representing sales and this is not a sales forum, I'm just trying to help out in the forums.   I'll undoubtedly miss something important out.   :!:

Here's a link to look at http://www.alfresco.com/products/networks/compare/   Call or email if you need more information.

Alfresco Labs contains all the features of Enterprise plus Labs only features.   At the moment the big labs only features include Web Studio, Media Wiki and Sharepoint as well as various work in progress towards Labs 3D/ Enterprise 3.1.

You are right to note that big difference with Enterprise is the support, but support is quite broad and there are a number of aspects of support .   Enterprise is tested, stable and comes with warranties etc which is important for some.

Is there a comprehensive PDF on how to install the full Labs version of Alfresco, so that I can test drive and administer all the features?

AFAIK there is no comprehensive PDF for the Labs version. Your best bet is the Alfresco Wiki. Use Google to search through it by adding "site:wiki.alfresco.com" to your searches.

Alternatively, there are some really good webinars that demonstrate Alfresco functionality. You can find it at http://www.alfresco.com/about/events/ondemand/. For more technical information check out the Alfresco Tech Talks at http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Live.

So since the Labs version is more or less the Enterprise version, with some additional functionality on the Labs side, I should be able to follow using the Enterprise Administrator's Guide to configure and administer Alfresco Labs, yes?

Also, is the list below all the required prerequisites that need to be installed in order to completely install Alfresco Labs 3.0?

MySQL (latest version)
Apache (latest version)
Fedora or Red Hat Linux (latest version)
Java Runtime (latest version)
