Mac users who need an Exchange-compatible email client from Microsoft have depended on Entourage or Microsoft Web Access. Following the introduction of Microsoft Office for Mac 2011, Microsoft has replaced the Entourage client with Outlook for Mac 2011. Progent's Mac specialists and Microsoft-certified Exchange Server consultants can help you to maintain an older Entourage system, design and execute a smooth migration to Microsoft's latest technology, and enhance your Exchange Server deployment to optimize the speed, availability, protection, collaborative capability, and general strategic impact of your email, messaging, and conferencing ecosystem.
Microsoft Office Outlook for Mac, available in Office 365 for Mac, replaces Entourage and has been redesigned to provide significant enhancements in the areas of email creation and management, scheduling, backup and restore, search, Windows compatibility, sharing, performance, video conferencing, voice mail, mobility, Instant Messaging, and presence. The Office Outlook for Mac database for email messages, contacts, and calendars is now saved in individual text files, making them simpler to manage. Outlook for Mac is also Spotlight searchable and able to be copied and restored via Apple Time Machine. Configuring accounts has been simplified so you can quickly add Exchange-based accounts or accounts from popular email services.
Progent's Mac integration specialists and Microsoft premier consultants can assist your company to migrate from the discontinued Entourage email client for Exchange Server so your Apple Mac users can team with colleagues who use Microsoft Outlook. Entourage allowed you ro utilize your Microsoft Exchange account to send and receive email, search your Exchange global address list (GAL), synchronize your calendar and contact list, and invite people to meetings and events. Entourage was designed to support AppleScript as well as the Spotlight search tool. Progent can assist you to configure a secure and reliable messaging solution that replaces Entourage for Mac with an up-to-date email client that can access your Exchange Server.
