Compatibility is a key focus, as Sogo supports various protocols to ensure that information syncs smoothly across devices, especially for users of Microsoft products. While open-source software may require more technical know-how and lacks dedicated support hotlines, it benefits from a vibrant community that provides assistance. Security vulnerabilities are often addressed more quickly in open-source software due to the collaborative nature of its development.
