National Online Consulting Services and Support
Exchange 2000
Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server was the initial email platform from Microsoft to use AD directory services rather than a built-in directory system. This architectural innovation made Microsoft Exchange Server 2K dramatically simpler to administer and MS Exchange Server 2K continues to be the foundation of the messaging system used by many small businesses.
Years of background with Microsoft's email technology makes Progent among the most knowledgeable computer consulting resources in the U.S. for supporting messaging environments based on MS Exchange Server 2000. Progent is experienced at assisting small companies who still run Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server and Progent can assist you understand the costs and benefits of upgrading your MS Exchange Server 2000 environment to a more recent release of Exchange.

Benefits of MS Exchange Server 2000 Compared to Microsoft Exchange 5.5 Server
Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server offers major improvements in functionality compared to Microsoft Exchange 5.5 Server in key areas including accessibility, ease of administration, protection, stability, capacity, and speed.
- The 2000 version of Microsoft Exchange Server brought a dramatic improvement in features over the Microsoft Exchange 5.5 web interface. MS Exchange Server 2000 offers a good rendition of the older Outlook interface, including calendaring and tools. Consequently, mobile users can have full, secure availability of email even without their mobile computer. The only thing they need is an Internet-connected PC with a conventional web browser.
- Unlike Microsoft Exchange 5.5, which has its own directory, MS Exchange 2000 Server utilizes Active Directory, offering a greatly simplified administration and security architecture. This makes Microsoft Exchange Server 2K easier to administer and support and also offers tighter protection.
- Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 incorporates a robust architecture for transparently integrating third-party applications such as virus scanning programs and anti-spamming tools. Microsoft Exchange Server 2K's strong Application Programming Interface eliminates the risks existing with Exchange 5.5 when integrating third-party add-ins.
- Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 provides dramatically increased capacity and responsiveness over Exchange 5.5. This means you can have more and bigger mailboxes and enjoy quicker remote connectivity.

Advantages of Microsoft Exchange Server 2K Compared to an ISP-based or POP3 Email Environment
If your company still has users supported by a messaging solution hosted by an ISP or if you are running some Outlook users in POP3 mode, your MS Exchange 2000 Server provides a wealth of enhanced capabilities in the areas of ease of administration, performance, capacity, robustness, and collaboration:
- In contrast to the store-and-forward model used by POP3 email systems, MS Exchange Server 2000 uses a central-store model that liberates clients from reliance on a single desktop or notebook computer, reduces exposure to hardware failure or virus attacks, and permits on-line and off-line email, auto-backup, and advanced sharing and team tasks.
- MS Exchange 2000 Server has strong collaboration features that enable teams to improve productivity by sharing calendaring, address books, email and files.
- The flexibility of Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server makes it possible to integrate third-party security software or accommodate wireless smartphones such as the RIM BlackBerry.
- Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server allows complete live backup without disturbing users, making possible non-stop operation by eliminating periodic shutdowns and maintenance interruptions.
