Microsoft Exchange vs Microsoft Exchange Online comparison

"Exchange is very scalable, it's one of the most important things about this software."

"Microsoft Exchange is a powerful solution. It can easily integrate with Active Directory and other business applications. It does not require any training, it is flexible and simple to use. When comparing Microsoft Exchange to other solutions, such as Lotus Note, it is more straightforward for business."

"It is a very scalable solution."

"The availability group settings are better, so it has inherent scalability. In 2010, they added several sensible rules."

"The initial setup is very simple."

"The ability to share information, appointments, and agendas easily is the big value of Microsoft Exchange."

"On-premises Microsoft Exchange is good because it protects data privacy."

"It ensures high availability and resilience, allowing seamless recovery from potential failures and making it a reliable option for business-critical operations."

"The best part of this solution is the security it offers."

"One of the important features is the collaboration tool used in Office 365. The security and DLP mechanisms are also quite good."

"The overall usage was all good."

"I like that Exchange Online is easy to use and that I do not need to maintain the previous Exchange Server. I also do not need to worry about the security of the Exchange Server. If there are any issues, then it will be the service provider's problem and not mine."

"Microsoft Exchange Online is a stable product."

"Exchange Online's best feature is its webmail platform."

"Microsoft Exchange Online is an easy-to -use email solution."

"The initial setup is straightforward and is definitely easy."

"In terms of probability, every now and then there are changes coming and going. The changes are not that frequent because every month they got updates back, so that is an issue."

"The solution's hybrid deployment process could be improved, particularly for customers who initially started in the cloud and may want to return to an on-premises setup. Microsoft could make this transition more flexible."

"I would like to see the search capability of the Outlook client improved"

"An improvement would be to combine Exchange and Teams so that emails, calls, and chats can be integrated into one window."

"Microsoft Exchange needs to improve how it handles and assigns policy and security."

"After 2022, users of Microsoft Exchange have to migrate mailboxes to Microsoft Exchange Online, and what I'd like to improve is for Microsoft to publish more on-premise versions for customers using Microsoft Exchange. Having more security is another room for improvement in the solution, particularly for mailboxes that develop the Exchange Edge rule to protect internal mailboxes. What I'd like to see from Microsoft Exchange in the future is for Microsoft to still update the latest, existing version which is 2022. I'd like Microsoft to still push more cumulative updates for Microsoft Exchange 2022."

"The solution is stable, but it could improve. It's crashing if there is a big mail database. The Zimbra solution is better in this area."

"Microsoft Exchange could improve the archiving of emails and the performance."

"I would prefer an anti-malware functionality in at least the basic version."

"The licensing price of the solution could be lower."

"Functionality wise, I can't really say it's improved from Exchange Online, I think it's not so much change on-premise. It's about the same. Other than that, it's the extra features that make a difference, really"

"We would like to have more automation with Microsoft Exchange Online."

"The solution is expensive."

"Using this solution is initially quite complicated."

"The solution’s API integrations could be improved."

"We'd like to have the ability to recall emails on the web. I'm not sure if that is available yet."

"Licensing fees are paid monthly."

"Its price is okay."

"The product pricing is reasonable if you utilize its full suite of features."

"Its price is very affordable, and basically, it is the standard of the industry. We have the Exchange 365 subscription, which includes the usage of Exchange Online. I don't know the specific cost, but it is the retail price of Microsoft 365 E3 licenses. Microsoft's licensing is not very easy to understand. Microsoft changes rules every other day, which makes it difficult for us to understand the licensing not only for Exchange but also for other products. It can sometimes be really complex to understand what you need to have in order to comply with Microsoft licensing."

"The platform has a reasonable price."

"There are different prices depending on the customer's use cases and amount of users. The price of the solution could improve."

"We are currently using enterprise licenses for the solution. They are different pricing models available. There are individual, cloud-based, and enterprise licenses all with different pricing models. The larger the number of users, the lesser the price. For small to medium companies like us, we feel it is expensive."

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

"The licensing price is ok, I'd rate it as four out of five."

"The price of the license depends on a lot of factors, such as the number of licenses and company specifics."

"The cost of Microsoft Exchange Online is approximately $4 to $36 per user. They do not give a discount which is not good. The solution is expensive if you have 800 to 1,000 users. They should give discounts when you have a lot of users."

"I would give the cost a five out of ten."

"Initially, we had issues with the licensing agreement, but we worked it out with Microsoft."

"Microsoft Exchange Online is an affordable solution."

"I would say the solution is reasonable and affordable."

"The license for the solution is cheap, but it could be more affordable in the long term."
