Microsoft Exchange Server 2007
Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 is designed to meet the challenges of security, anywhere access, and operational efficiency. Exchange Server 2007 offers built-in protective technologies that deliver enterprise-class availability and reliability to keep your messaging system up and running, reduce spam and viruses, enable confidential communications, and help your company to be compliant with regulatory requirements. By offering anywhere access to their e-mail, voice mail, calendars, and contacts from a variety of clients and devices, Exchange Server 2007 increases the productivity of the growing number of employees who require the ability to respond quickly at home, work, or on the road. Compared to earlier releases of Exchange, Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 gets more from hardware, software, and network investments through the power of x64 computing and bandwidth-optimizing routing algorithms. Exchange Server 2007 also improves administrator productivity by making it easier to find and fix problems and automate tasks.
Features introduced by Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 offer improvements in functionality over earlier versions of Exchange Server in key areas including security, accessibility, performance, manageability, and extensibility. Improvements include:
With the release to manufacturing of Exchange Server 2016, Exchange 2007 became a legacy technology. Although the Exchange 2007 platform remains popular, maintenance and compliance issues make it prudent to consider migrating to a more current release of Exchange. For a discussion of the new features and benefits available from current versions of Exchange, see Exchange Server 2019 consulting and Exchange Server 2016 planning and support services.
Anti-spam and Antivirus | Built-in defenses against spam and phishing e-mail as well as additional integrated filtering and multi-engine scanning capabilities provide advanced protection. |
Compliance | Controls for messages in transport or requiring retention, and flexible journaling help meet organizational, legal and regulatory compliance requirements. |
Business Continuity | New data replication capabilities (local and clustered) keep the system highly available while limiting the need and frequency for tape backup. |
Confidential Messaging | New encryption features for both internal and Internet-based messages help protect the confidentiality of messages in transit. |
Unified Messaging | New Exchange Unified Messaging goes beyond e-mail to deliver more types of communications to the inbox, including faxes and voice mail, as well as offering new capabilities such as voice access from any standard phone. |
Web-Based Messaging | A rich Outlook-like experience from any Internet connected computer with a supported browser provides encrypted access to the inbox, powerful search, and the ability to view different types of attachments. |
Mobile Messaging | Exchange ActiveSync technology delivers an improved e-mail and calendaring experience on mobile devices, while offering enhanced device and security policy control. |
Collaboration and Productivity | Enhanced calendaring, out-of-office, resource booking, and meeting scheduling capabilities simplify collaboration and increase productivity. |
Performance and Scalability | Improved storage efficiency can be achieved through the extended memory and larger cache of x64-based architecture even as mailbox sizes increase; more efficient routing ensures more effective use of bandwidth. |
Administration | New graphical and command-line interfaces offer improved manageability and increased automation while integrated tools simplify maintenance. |
Extensibility | New Web services-based application programming interface (API) and .NET integration via Exchange Management Shell tasks enable rapid development for custom and third-party applications. |
