## Reviews

### "Top Mail Server Ever" — 5.0/5

> **Mohammad** | *19 July 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Microsoft Exchange is the best mail server after years of experience, very stable, and high availability. database auto-fix and autocorrect. thousand of features that are amazing from distribution lists to Journal mail.
> 
> **Cons**: Microsoft Exchange Online is cheap for small and medium companies, but it's expensive for a large number of mailboxes, I recommend if became a bundle for companies with more than 50 mailboxes with good discounts.
> 
> Microsoft Exchange is the best solution for IT Technicals and users, with high availability and fewer technical issues.

### "Microsoft Exchange, Easy to use and implement" — 5.0/5

> **Victor** | *1 June 2022* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like this product, I use it every day since I am the Exchange administrator in my company, it is very easy to use and manage, you can have a hybrid system with office 365, manage all your emails more compactly and quickly. highly recommend this product
> 
> **Cons**: I really don't have something that I don't like very much, if I had something it would be the synchronization of the local exchange with the one in the cloud, which sometimes takes a little time.
> 
> I have had a very good experience with this product, I can add the users of my active directory creating the mailboxes, the local synchronization is very fast

### "Exchange" — 4.0/5

> **Keith** | *17 May 2023* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Its the old school "on prem" mail solution - if you are nervous about migrating to the cloud this is the solution for you
> 
> **Cons**: Its not 365 - 365 has moved on so far now from where it was - no onsite hardware, no running out of disk space
> 
> In its heyday it was the go to solution

-----

### "Most valuable software" — 5.0/5

> **karen** | *28 March 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love Microsoft Outlook which is part of the Microsoft Exchange.  It helps me keep track of tasks I need to do, keep my calendar, a company address book and a meeting scheduler.  I don't know how I would function without this software in my job since it helps to keep me organized and miss deadlines, etc.
> 
> **Cons**: If you have questions or problems with this software, it is very hard to reach any form of customer service.
> 
> Great overall experience with Microsoft Exchange.

### "Typical Microsoft product" — 4.0/5

> **Elroy** | *4 April 2022* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Like most Microsoft products, it does what it was designed to do. Its user friendly and updated regularly. It allows calendar and mails to be shared. The calendar acts like a personal assistant that stores dates and times and sends reminders. I currently link it to zoom which is great especially when setting up meetings.
> 
> **Cons**: The data is stored on your own computer, so if your hard drive crashes, then goodbye data. Like most Microsoft products, it crashes ever so often.
