  • In my opinion, Microsoft Exchange's ability to integrate with calendars and other tools makes email considerably more powerful and capable.
  • From any device, users can access their email. As a result, users can react to essential emails when they are away from their primary computer.
  • In an email-heavy workplace, I cherish the ability to swiftly organize and categorize relevant information. Additionally, you have the option to deliver files safely.
  • The learning curve for Microsoft Exchange Online isn't too steep. It's easy to use once you get the hang of it, although the user interface isn't as intuitive as Gmail's.
  • Depending on the administrator's configuration, attachments may never be able to get through the firewall.
  • My wish is that I could use a shortcut to archive files in the same way that users use the delete buttons. However, this isn't currently available. I rarely remove emails unless they are spam, so making the process quicker would be ideal.

  • Great granular-level management and backup of all Microsoft 365 mailboxes
  • Content search and investigation of mailboxes without modifying a user's password (without the user knowing)
  • Setting the role to use e-Discovery is frustrating. Although you're the global admin, you must assign yourself the role of e-Discovery manager in order to use it. Not even e-Discovery admin.
  • Assigning yourself the role of e-Discovery manager successfully, but does not reflect immediately. So you still get permission issues when doing a content search. You have to wait until the permissions propagate before you can access content search. No warnings whatsoever from Microsoft's success message. I was scratching my head off.
  • e-Discovery downloads must use Edge or Internet Explorer. Chrome, Firefox, and other browsers won't work.
  • In-Place Hold or Litigation Hold requires Exchange Plan 2, which doubles the price of Exchange Plan 1. Exchange Plan 1 does not come with this function.

  • Import data from a .pst file with the Outlook Import and Export option
  • Drag messages from my main mailbox to the archive
  • Restore items that I have previously deleted
  • Time to restore the mailings
  • To change the characteristics of the archive I need to communicate with the administrator
  • When the administrator eliminates the mail account it also eliminates the archives created

  • Automatic archival of mail based on criteria.
  • Keep mailboxes to a manageable size.
  • Avoid having to manually delete older mail or export to PST.
  • The initial setup of tags and policies can take a bit of time to understand the first time you set it up.
  • Better visibility within Outlook to show which archive tags are applied to which folders.
