9## Differentiators
10In order to avoid simply replicating what's already existing it's important to know how this product differentiates to other existing solutions.
11This section is supposed to outline that
12
13* To Roundcube Next
14 * Native application
15 * Responsivness of UI (assuming we can't reach that in the browser)
16 * Not in a browser (assuming we can't effectively hide that)
17 * Desktop integration (notifications, startmenu)
18 * Offline capability
19 * Cryptography
20
21* To Kontact/Thunderbird/...
22 * Simple but powerful UI (assuming we can achieve that)
23 * Performance (lower resource usage, quick and responsive operations)
24 * Easy & automated setup (scriptable setup process, syncable configuration, setup can easily be nuked and setup from scratch)
25 * Codebase
26 * Well automated tested
27 * Efficient further development
28 * Codebase can go to mobile platforms as well
29
30* To existing mobile applications
31 * Complementing usecases that make the overall product more useful (A mobile/tablet could even be the preferred interface for some interactions due to additional screen and touch capabilities)
32 * Categorization
33 * What's next, schedule checking
34 * Todolist view
35 * Notification center
36 * Better integration with kolab
