Mac users who need an Exchange-aware mail client from Microsoft have relied on Entourage or Microsoft Web Access. With the introduction of Office for Mac 2011, Microsoft has replaced the Entourage client with Outlook 2011. Progent's macOS and OS X specialists and Microsoft-certified Exchange engineers can assist you to maintain a legacy Entourage environment, design and carry out a smooth upgrade to Microsoft's current platform, and enhance your Exchange Server infrastructure to improve the performance, reliability, protection, collaboration support, and overall strategic value of your email, messaging, and conferencing solution.

Progent's OS X integration experts and Microsoft premier support professionals can assist your company to migrate from the discontinued Entourage email client for Microsoft Exchange so your Apple Mac users can collaborate with workers who use Microsoft Outlook. Microsoft Entourage enabled you ro use your Exchange account to send and receive your email, search your Exchange global address list (GAL), sync up your schedule and contact list, and invite colleagues to meetings and events. Microsoft Entourage was designed to support AppleScript as well as Apple's Spotlight search utility. Progent can assist you to integrate a secure and reliable email solution that replaces Entourage for Mac with a current email client that can access your Exchange Server.
