The security and compliance features impacted our organization to a minimal extent because we use third-party products for most of such stuff. Speaking about the tool's integration capabilities with other software, I would say that they vary a lot, so some things are good, while some areas are challenging. I utilize the mobile access features of the tool all the time. Speaking about the tool's productivity, I would say it is the number one email platform in the world. The product works just fine. It does what I need it to do. The only time I get frustrated is when it breaks down or doesn't do things the way it is supposed to and when the support people are unable to assist me. As I support Microsoft Exchange for many people, I can recommend it to others. When the tool is working just fine, it is a great product. When it breaks and I cannot get it working the way it is supposed to, it is bad. I rate the tool a five out of ten.
We currently utilize Python AI tools to handle graphical views, financial documents, and financial questions, which complements our use of Microsoft Exchange. We use the calendar to schedule meetings, and it integrates with Microsoft Teams. Overall, I rate the product a five out of ten.
I recommend Microsoft Exchange to others due to its robust features and reasonable pricing. Setting up Microsoft Exchange has become much more straightforward compared to previous versions. The overall setup experience has significantly improved over the past six to seven years, making it easier for administrators. I rate it a nine out of ten.
We recently transitioned from on-premises Exchange servers to cloud Exchange, primarily for enhanced security and ease of management. In the past, we had shared mailboxes with multiple users who were accessing them simultaneously, posing security risks and management challenges. With the switch to cloud Exchange, we adopted shared mailboxes with individual user access, providing better security and accountability. This transition also streamlined our operations and reduced maintenance costs. While we still maintain a hybrid environment with Azure Active Directory, all our mailboxes are now on cloud Exchange. It has indeed improved our email system. In the past, with on-premises Exchange servers, there was a higher risk associated with granting extensive access to Exchange admins, potentially exposing sensitive data. However, while transitioning to a cloud Exchange admin center may offer less flexibility for admins, it provides a more organized and structured approach. The preset scenarios and settings reduce the likelihood of incidents caused by manual admin actions, thereby lowering the personal impact on the overall system. The calendar and scheduling functionality of Microsoft Exchange has been essential to my daily workflow. As a user and a manager, I rely heavily on the calendar feature to organize my tasks and appointments. I utilize color-coding for different types of events, set up repeated meetings efficiently, and sync my calendar with other planning tools seamlessly. Overall, it has had a very positive impact on my productivity and activity management. The flexibility and plethora of features, such as customizable settings for meetings and the ability to share calendars, add groups, and specify user permissions, make it an indispensable tool in my work routine. Compared to other platforms like Google Workspace, it provides seamless connectivity between Teams, Outlook, Exchange, and other Microsoft products. Additionally, recent updates have improved connectivity between tools like Planner and Projects, allowing seamless task management across the platform. I rate it an eight out of ten.

It's a useful tool for remote work and communication. Start slow and educate yourself. Learn about the solution and give it a try. Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten.
If you're starting a new organization and entering a new industry, Office 365 is the right choice. It offers the same features as Exchange without any extensive technical expertise or manpower. This saves the cost by not investing in hardware or resources. Therefore, Office 365 is recommended for startups. However, as the organization grows to thousands of employees and reevaluation is necessary, factoring in costs and making a TCO comparison between Office 365 and Exchange solution, you can make the decision. I would rate the product Microsoft Exchange a seven out of ten.
The tool is very stable and easy to set up. However, we need Microsoft-certified engineers to manage it. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
I am using the latest version of the solution. I'm an end-user. As an end-user, the solution works well to the point I don't really know it's there. My company is a Microsoft customer. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

I rate Microsoft Exchange 10 out of 10. I always recommended customers go with the Microsoft email solution, either on-premises Exchange or Microsoft Office 365. You can also go for the hybrid. I suggest Microsoft 365 or Microsoft Exchange for their collaboration and communication solutions. Speaker 2:
We've used on-premises and cloud deployments. In on-premises, we're likely one version behind. On the cloud, we are using the latest version. I'd recommend the solution to others. Whenever, for example, I find someone using Google, I move them over to Exchange. I would rate the product eight out of ten.
I'm working in a professional service company that's implementing Microsoft Exchange on-premises for customers. I implemented the solution on-premises in 2016, 2019, and 2022. In 2016, I also performed a migration from Microsoft Exchange to Microsoft Exchange Online. My current company has between fifty to one hundred users of Microsoft Exchange, but in terms of the number of clients my team has implemented the solution for on-premises, it's potentially five thousand. Deploying Microsoft Exchange for SMB would require just two people, but deploying it for enterprise-scale businesses would require a minimum of three people. Maintaining Microsoft Exchange requires five to seven people for SMBs, and up to twelve in enterprise environments because maintaining the solution isn't as easy. My advice to anyone looking into implementing or using Microsoft Exchange is the same advice I give to my team every day, which is to be more aware of new information found on the internet in terms of troubleshooting Microsoft Exchange problems. You should also keep on training about sophisticated setups for the solution because you deal with aggressive customers, so I encourage my team to learn about Microsoft Exchange designs, troubleshooting mechanisms, etc. I'm rating Microsoft Exchange as nine out of ten. My company is an implementer and consultant for Microsoft Exchange, not a reseller or retailer. The customer is responsible for purchasing the Microsoft Exchange license.

I'm not sure which version of the solution we're on. I don't know the version number off-hand. I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten overall. we've been very pleased with its capabilities.

Microsoft Exchange is for any company with 400 to 500 people, but a mid-size company can also use this product. It's not very costly for them. The alternative many companies are using is Gmail desktop services with about 100 users. I don't know about the quantity, but many companies are using Gmail as a free service because they don't want to invest in other products like Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft Office 365. On a scale from one to ten, I would give Microsoft Exchange a nine.

It performs pretty well. Microsoft is a market leader with a presence everywhere, which makes it easy to find support. I would recommend this solution. I would advise others to also go for the entire suite of Office 365 along with Microsoft Exchange. I don't know if Exchange licenses are sold separately. If you are already using Microsoft tools, it makes sense to go for Microsoft Exchange because it has native integration with all those tools. I would rate Microsoft Exchange a nine out of ten.

This is a good product but our version is reaching end-of-life. I would recommend using the most recent version of Exchange. I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
It depends on what the user's needs are. A lot of people can now use Gmail or they can use Exchange on Office 365 with a license, there are a lot more options available nowadays. If you're thinking about installing Exchange on-premise, on behalf of a client, a lot of people have now moved to the cloud, to Azure or something similar. If a client asked me to purchase a 365 license, including the Exchange server, I might decline. If they want to hold meetings or something similar, I'd suggest that they use a professional service like Gmail for businesses. It's a much cheaper option because a lot of people that work with Microsoft office end up buying one or two 365 licenses which include Exchange, so they use it. Because I have a lot of experience using Exchange, I would rate it between eight and nine out of ten. It's not a perfect ten, but for our purposes, it was perfect.

I'm unsure as to which version of the solution I'm working with at this time. I've been using Exchange forever as an end-user, however, I don't know much about the technical aspects of it. I just use it a lot. For me, it's always worked quite well, and because of that, I haven't' given anything about it much thought. When it works, it's a beautiful thing. When it doesn't, you want to tear your hair out. Sometimes that's the price that we pay for the automation that we get. I'd rate the solution overall eight out of ten.
VNA redundancy has grown in the data, VNA data variability has grown, even in case VNA found the server goes down, and users can still access their email. So basically everything is good. The feature VNA almost as good as having your own Outlook, although it's better VNA.
If you don't really mind the cost then go for Microsoft. You can never go wrong with them, their solutions are very good. They're stable. They're all tested, so when you start you know it has already been tested. There are many people using it, it's comfortable, it's stable. You won't have any hiccups. I would recommend it. One thing I've been doing is, before I deploy it to a production environment, I always create a "lab" where I try it out and make sure everything is working properly.
Built to deliver the enterprise-grade security and reliability that businesses require, Microsoft Exchange provides email, calendar and contacts on your PC, phone and web browser.
