Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Exchange

We have used Microsoft Exchange (2016) in our company for more than 10 years. It's still on-premise. The problems we had with Exchange are rather small beauty flaws. With the DAG, Exchange is working fine and has e cluster functionality. It could be nice when you can do more with the GUI, but with Powershell skills there are no limits.
  • Easy user management.
  • Unlimited possibilities with Exchange Shell.
  • Failover possibility.
  • You can't use Exchange without Active Directory.
  • Message tracking is not that easy.
  • Installing updates can cause some problems.
  • We have used it for more than 10 Years without big problems.
The implementation was done before I started to work for the company. Since then we had not needed to search for another product.
Microsoft Exchange is a very good email Software that really can be used by every company. Many employees have already worked with Exchange or Outlook so you won't have any problems with the users. The integration is not that easy, but you will find help on the Internet and there are a lot of good tutorials.

Do you think Microsoft Exchange delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Microsoft Exchange's feature set?

Yes

Did Microsoft Exchange live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Microsoft Exchange go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Microsoft Exchange again?

Yes

Of course it's one of the best E-Mail Software you can use and it's fully integrated in the Office suit. Create Shared Mailboxes and Distribution Groups is done in a few clicks or in one row in the Exchange Shell.
Some settings can only be done in the Exchange Shell, so you need a little bit know how in Powershell.
