Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Exchange
Microsoft Exchange is our choice for our messaging platform. It is utilized by the entire organization (approx 45,000 seats). Microsoft Exchange provides a platform for communication as well as file sharing and collaboration. It also provides calendaring, contact management, task management, and notes management.
- Calendaring - Exchange is great at managing meetings and appointments. It provides the ability to look at attendees' free/busy data so you can effectively plan meetings based on many busy schedules.
- Web mail interface is easy to navigate and provides users with a rich experience. Many users do not require a fat client.
- Mobility - Exchange provides the ability to synchronize your mobile devices with your account so you can easily take your mailbox with you.
- Updating the environment can be cumbersome. As your environment grows the amount of time required to patch or update can be challenging.
- Calendar corruption, we have experienced challenges with calendars staying sync' between mobile devices. Meeting corruption can be difficult to clean up.
- Increased employee efficiency

- Message archival
