Microsoft Exchange Consulting and Support MS Exchange Server 2000: San Francisco Bay Area and Nationwide
MS Exchange 2000 Server delivers a robust, scalable, and easy to manage infrastructure with round-the-clock messaging and collaboration and affordability. MS Exchange Server 2000 enables a wide range of workgroup activities including scheduling, discussions, and shared folders, and it makes information accessible across geographic, departmental, and technology boundaries with capabilities such as Instant Messaging, realtime information, and video conferencing.
Background background with Microsoft's email products makes Progent among the most knowledgeable computer consulting firms in Northern California for integrating messaging solutions based on MS Exchange 2000 Server. Progent specializes in assisting small businesses to derive the full benefits of Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server under these common scenarios:
The 2K version of Microsoft Exchange Server provides a significant improvement in functionality in comparison to the MS Exchange 5.5 web interface. Microsoft Exchange Server 2K offers a nearly complete rendition of the popular Outlook interface, including scheduling and utilities. This means that mobile users can enjoy unrestricted, secure availability of email even without a notebook. The only thing mobile clients need is a web accessible computer with a standard web browser.
Unlike Microsoft Exchange 5.5, which uses its built-in directory,MS Exchange Server 2000 utilizes MS Active Directory, offering a greatly simplified administration and security model. This makes Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server easier to manage and support and also provides better security.
MS Exchange 2000 Server incorporates a robust foundation for transparently integrating third-party applications such as virus scanning programs and anti-spamming utilities. MS Exchange Server 2K's strong Application Programming Interface eliminates the instability associated with Exchange 5.5 when integrating third-party add-ins.
MS Exchange Server 2000 provides dramatically improved capacity and responsiveness compared to Exchange 5.5. This means you can manage more and larger mailboxes and enjoy faster remote connectivity.
Migrating to Microsoft Exchange Server 2K also offers better searching features, making it easier to retrieve vital data when you have to have it.

Advantages of Migrating from an ISP-based or POP3 Email Environment
If your small business still has clients on an email solution hosted by an ISP or if you are managing some Outlook clients in POP3 mode, MS Exchange 2000 Server offers a wealth of improved capabilities in the areas of ease of administration, performance, traffic volume, availability, and groupware:
Unlike the store-and-forward technique followed by POP3 messaging, MS Exchange Server 2000 uses a central-store model that frees users from dependence on a single workstation or notebook PC, reduces vulnerability to hardware failure or virus attacks, and allows both on-line and off-line email, auto-backup, and sophisticated sharing and collaboration.
Microsoft Exchange Server 2K has powerful collaboration capabilities that enable work groups to improve productivity by sharing calendaring, addresses, messages and data.
The versatility of Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server makes it possible to integrate third-party security software or accommodate wireless devices such as the RIM Blackberry or wireless PDAs.
Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 supports extensive management and tracking tools so you can ensure your email environment is operating smoothly.
Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 permits complete live backup without disturbing clients, making possible 24x7 operation by avoiding scheduled shutdowns and maintenance blackouts.
