Microsoft Exchange Server is the market leader in the on-premises email system segment.

In addition to email, Exchange offers calendar sharing and task and contact management. An important note is that Exchange Server works only with Microsoft Active Directory.

Why important?

To stay supported, get security patches, and new functionality, Microsoft Exchange Server has to be upgraded to newer versions as each version has a limited support lifecycle.

Exchange upgrade is not an easy task as it requires a specific set of knowledge and email usually is one of the most critical resources in organizations, therefore it is important to minimize downtime for users while performing the upgrade.

Why is upgrading important? 

  • Security risks are increased if Exchange is not renewed;
  • Latest Exchange versions support current Microsoft Office versions;
  • Supports integration with Microsoft Teams and other online services;
  • In some cases, the Exchange system architecture can be improved.
