Exchange

Consult, Design, Build services

Moving to Microsoft Exchange is an important business decision with significant potential benefits for both cost reduction and competitive advantage.

Migration from an existing email network needs sound design and careful planning, and everything needs to be managed to reduce the potential upheaval.

Your overall business objective is likely to be to improve efficiency.

Can you achieve it in the required timescales?

Understanding your objectives

What are your business objectives?

• Integrate your existing email system to improve business efficiency?
• Migrate your users to Microsoft Exchange to enable greater opportunities for collaborative working?
• Provide improved communication with third parties?
• All of the above and more?

You need to understand these before you can design the correct solution to meet your needs.

Designing your solution

With the business objective understood attention turns to the technical options and the proposed solution.

Defining and agreeing the functional requirements comes first. This may be done through workshops or interviews with key staff, or a combination of both.

This is followed by the design and consideration of:

• Types of client workstation
• Number of servers
• Types of shared peripherals
• Security and resilience
• Migration strategy
• Support
• Training

This stage also provides you with a sound understanding of the requirements of the overall network and how this will be achieved.
