IceWarp vs Microsoft Exchange comparison

"The product is used very extensively in my company since we have around 1,500 users using it. Also, there is no requirement for any administrators to manage the product by the people who own the solution."

"Its price is the most valuable. It is definitely one of the lowest price solutions."

"An effective, functional, very good tool for controlling resources."

"The solution has a very good log-in to the UI when compared to other solutions."

"It has great communication capabilities for team chatting and web conferences."

"The TeamChat feature has been really good for our email management. It lets us collaborate, share files, and invite guests like Google Spaces or Microsoft Teams. I like the two-factor authentication for security. However, they need to improve their document collaboration tools, as their Word, Excel, and PowerPoint features are basic compared to Microsoft and Google."

"It's scalable and stable."

"IceWarp has multiple applications that are easy to use for many people."

"The product works very well."

"The email management system is very easy to set up, configure, and use."

"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Exchange is the email storage is on the cloud. We don't have to delete emails often."

"We have found it to be a stable solution. It is scalable and easy to install."

"I like the logistics and the Microsoft protocol of reaching Outlook anywhere."

"The search tools are good."

"The initial setup was straightforward and fast."

"It is a very stable tool...It is a very scalable tool."

"The exchange compatibility mode is rather limited. Their technical support can also be better. They only provide online support, and there should be some option for escalating."

"It is difficult to disable user rights on the console so some users accidentally delete their documents or user details."

"The solution needs improvements in security, particularly regarding document management."

"The tool's configuration capabilities are not straightforward. Apart from that, if I want to archive emails into a vault so that they can be retrieved again later, the integration doesn't work, and IceWarp crashes."

"The solution has traditional SSL integration, SAML, and Federation Services. In its latest version, it added SAML integration. However, it needs to work on API integration, especially for dashboards or integration with SAP for log and data system management. It doesn't yet have the kind of API that Google and Microsoft provide for synchronizing users with Active Directory."

"Although the documentation is extensive and in depth, you must familiarize yourself with it before taking full advantage of the product."

"Our customers sometimes have problems receiving mail."

"I would like to have a trial for mobile applications and more documentation similar to Google Drive with mobile applications."

"There are issues when you add your domain to Microsoft Tenant, and you try to create that. Which is a problem for me."

"Microsoft Exchange could improve by adding artificial intelligence."

"The setup is difficult so could be easier."

"In our current situation, the disappearance of sanctions would be a tangible improvement. We are basically cut off from technical support and it's very difficult to obtain any updates."

"Sometimes the client part generates some trouble. It can be very slow, though this might be related to our company's installation and configuration rather than the product itself."

"The solution could be more user-friendly."

"There can be occasional challenges during the product's implementation phase, making it an area where improvements are needed."

"The desktop version of Microsoft Exchange receives emails a little slower than the online version."

"I don't see any challenges for the Indian market. For example, 1 GB is available for around 399 INR, and 2 GB for 499 INR. They offer a range of plans, from basic to professional and enterprise, with multiple features. IceWarp's aggressive pricing is competitive compared to other market solutions like Zoho and Microsoft. One significant advantage is that IceWarp does not impose user capping like Google and Microsoft, which allows for substantial cost savings and flexibility in user conversion."

"The license is based on the number of users."

"Our licensing is on a yearly basis. There were no additional costs."

"It is definitely one of the lowest price solutions."

"Costs far less than other solutions."

"There are various licensing plans available based on geographic zone."

"The solution is priced well."

"The solution is inexpensive which is its main benefit."

"It would be nice if it used less resources to run on-premise."

"It's working very well. There is no problem, but the price is not the best."

"We renew the product license with Microsoft every three years. The cost is included within a bundle of services. It's an enterprise agreement with Microsoft."

"The product is quite cheap."

"This solution is expensive."

"I have Outlook 365 Professional, and Exchange comes in the bundle with other solutions, such as Word and OneDrive. I pay for the use of the bundle monthly and I can imagine if you are a company with many licenses the pricing model would be a lot different."

"Licensing costs for Microsoft Exchange have increased, but are still fair. For some users, the cost is high considering the number of functions and features they will use."

"Microsoft Exchange is a very well-priced solution."
