[AccessD] SPAM-LOW: Zoho Access Migration Plugin

Also known as thin client or dumb terminal (for a reason) from 30 years ago.  And the pendulum swings...

You left out all of the negatives however:

1) Dozens of technologies
2) Server load
3) Integration issues
4) UI clumsy to say the least
5) User UI preferences harder to deal with

and so forth...
