Pros
"The solution offers great features."

More CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pros →

"The initial setup was straightforward and fast.""Microsoft has a very good support team.""The most valuable features are that you can exchange information, tasks, attachments, and enhance the process in a short amount of time.""The interface is user-friendly.""It has a feature that allows you to retain an email and recover it as an administrator. When you activate this feature, even if a user deletes an email, the email is still in the system, and we can retrieve it as an administrator. It is a very useful function. We turn this feature on for some of the mailboxes because we need to keep all the records. I like the way emails are classified in this solution. It makes it really easy to take a look at the most important messages. This is a really good functionality. Some of the emails directly exchanged with you are marked as important and shown in one tab, and everything else is in another tab. We usually don't have any issue with Exchange. It can be integrated with different solutions.""It gives me benefit in terms of integration with other services such as SharePoint, Microsoft Teams, and OneDrive. It makes my work much easier.""Customers can benefit from this new pricing model because it's expensive and now with the subscription they can budget for this.""It is stable."

Cons
"NVMe support is lacking when it comes to performance on the disk side."

More CodeTwo Exchange Rules Cons →

"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.""Exchange took time to be deployed. It requires extensive configuration and setting up servers and managing internal network access.""In the version we have, I would like to see better communication between the end device and the Exchange server.""Some users encounter stability issues. I connect with the support team through my local partner, which takes time.""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 needs to improve how it handles and assigns policy and security.""There can be occasional challenges during the product's implementation phase, making it an area where improvements are needed.""Microsoft Exchange could improve security. They can elevate a lot of security features."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "They are flexible when it comes to pricing, unlike most of the other vendors I have dealt with."
  • "It's working very well. There is no problem, but the price is not the best."
  • "Its price is okay."
  • "It's a little bit expensive."
  • "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."
  • "Microsoft doesn't have a unit price, it's based on the quantity, and they offer great discounts."
  • "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."
  • "Its price is fair."
