"The product works very well."
"What I love about Microsoft Exchange is the good integration since 2013, particularly its integration with the calendar and other software such as Zoom, TeamViewer, AnyDesk, etc."
"The initial setup was straightforward and fast."
"Veritas Enterprise Vault is an archive solution for email and files."

"Exchange can be a little finicky, sometimes, or flakey. Last week, for example, I had gone into my calendar to check on some briefings that I had established, and then went back into my inbox, and suddenly the view had changed. I had no idea what it was that I had done, and I couldn't figure out how to get that view back. I took a productivity hit as a result of that, trying to fix it, due to the fact that it just wasn't what I wanted. It wasn't what I was used to working with. Two different tech support people had to work with me in order to get the view back to what I wanted just so I could be productive."
"I would like to see Microsoft Exchange improve their documentation."
"Microsoft Exchange is highly stable. However, after receiving some updates it can be unstable."
"There are issues when you add your domain to Microsoft Tenant, and you try to create that. Which is a problem for me."
"When an update wants to come, it should just come maybe once or twice rather than having us deal with constant updating."
"Microsoft Exchange could improve by adding artificial intelligence."
"Its search functionality can be better. It is currently not really easy. It has the capability to search your mailbox, but it has some restrictions in terms of the number of results that you can retrieve. You can only get around 250 results. If you want to do a deeper search, you need to use different functionalities of the product. The policy that we have for handling emails is that we do not delete emails at all. If I insert the text that I am searching for in the Search field, it only retrieves a limited number of emails. To search for an email from 2010, I need to use different search functions to find what I am looking for. Microsoft can also improve its licensing for its products. Microsoft's licensing is not very easy to understand. It can sometimes be really complex to understand what you need to have in order to comply with Microsoft licensing."
"In terms of configuring the product, that's definitely an area in which they can make some improvements on."
"Cost is high for Veritas Enterprise Vault."
"Veritas Enterprise Vault's cloud backup solution should include the journal archiving feature along with the standard licensing package."
"The product is a very complicated solution. It is not easy to upgrade and get alerts of issues. You have to check it all the time to see if there is an internal error."
"Dealing with personal information, such as documents that contain a personal number, personal ID or something like that should be improved. Sometimes it works poorly in that regard."
"Veritas Enterprise Vault should improve its indexing and customization options."
"The stability could be improved."
"The platform's price could be affordable for small businesses."
"The quality of support by Veritas has declined in the last year."
