Perhaps those pages help you, althought it is about clients:
http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Clients_for_Kolab2
and
http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Clients_Features_Notes
http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Clients_Features_Address
http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Clients_Features_Tasks
http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Clients_Features_Calendar

By heart the most important features of kolab (that are different from MS 
exchange) are its distributed concept (so scalable), it's based on open 
source software and it supports multiple clients.  See the description on top 
of the kolab's website http://www.kolab.org/ 

What might be different too, is e.g. that each email is stored as file, in 
contrast of other servers were all emails are stored in in 1 file.  If the 
latter gets corrupt, many emails might be lost.  It's probable also more file 
space consuming to backup such a server.

Disclaimer: this is of course far from complete, it might even be completely 
wrong. So, just don't copy and paste those points!
