Migrating to Exchange 2007 – Are you Ready?

The recent release of Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 is creating a huge impact in the market – whether companies are currently considering an upgrade to 2007’s enhanced functionality and manageability, or they are reacting to the potential phasing out of Exchange Server 5.5, Exchange Server 2000, and Exchange Server 2003. For a number of reasons, it appears that making the move to a more recent version of Exchange will eventually be inevitable.

These developments lead to the question – are you prepared to take on the disruptive and risky venture of changing a corporate mail system? Are you concerned about lost data if you do choose to migrate? With new regulations being passed and courts ordering companies to pay multi-million pound fines if they cannot produce electronic information as directed, can you afford not to be prepared?
