Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Exchange

Microsoft Exchange is used as the groupware server backbone for a set of collaboration experiences connected to the Microsoft Office 365 product suite. Specifically, it provides the server infrastructure for managing email traffic and calendar events. For accessing applications powered by Microsoft Exchange, individual company users can access locally-installed Windows applications or web experiences via browsers.
  • Routing emails to the appropriate individual or group.
  • Providing advanced email management options, such as filtering and routing.
  • Providing calendar collaboration, with the ability to control who can see my calendar.
  • Exchange spam filtering can be inconsistent at times.
  • Exchange task integration is lacking key features such as schedule integration.
  • According to IT colleagues, Exchange servers are tedious to manage and upgrade from a set-up administration perspective.
  • Email security.
  • Email delivery reliability.
  • Calendar options, with feature rich editing, collaboration, and resource reservation.
  • Microsoft Exchange enables a large and distributed workforce to stay connected via email
  • Microsoft Exchange enables teams to plan out meeting participants and locations well in advance, which is particularly useful since we have a premium on conference room reservations.
  • Microsoft Exchange increasingly aligns with modern security practices, such as MFA (multi-factor authentication), and IdP (identify provider) integration.

Many organizations have standardized on Microsoft Office as a productivity suite, so employees can access applications such as MS Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. For these companies, MS Exchange is the ideal infrastructure choice to support email, calendar, and task collaboration. Especially for companies who still require or desire an on-premise implementation of MS software.
