Optimize messaging, collaboration, and information security
 Microsoft Exchange Server 2010
Microsoft Exchange Server 2010, the newest version of the premier Microsoft enterprise messaging and collaboration product, provides the foundation on which your agency can build efficient and cost-effective unified communications—consolidating e-mail, instant messaging, conferencing, and voice mail within one familiar and easily managed platform. Improved features enable your staff to work more efficiently and help your agency achieve new levels of reliability and security in its communications management—while helping to reduce deployment and administrative costs.

Enhanced efficiency through unified communications Exchange Server 2010 integrates all of your agency's communication tools, providing your staff with seamless access to e-mail, voice mail, faxes, instant messaging, and text messaging—all from their familiar Microsoft Office Outlook Inbox. New productivity features can help you organize and prioritize the growing volume of communications you deal with every day. Other enhancements improve collaboration by helping your staff easily find each other, set up meetings, and share information with colleagues and partners outside your agency.
Anytime, anywhere access The audio, video, and Web conferencing capabilities in Exchange Server 2010 bring people together regardless of location. Mobile users can enjoy the same access to everything in their Office Outlook Inbox through a wide range of devices—without the need for expensive third-party software or services.
Greater flexibility and reliability With Exchange Server 2010, you can choose the deployment approach that works best for your agency— whether it's on-premises hosting, a Microsoft-hosted service with Exchange Online, or a blend of both. Modular management tools make it easier to streamline your operations. For example, with role-based access control, you can automatically configure access for certain employee roles, and new self-service tools empower your staff to perform common tasks, such as message tracking and creating distribution lists, which can help to trim your support costs. Built-in data replication technology can reduce the expense of deploying a highly available Exchange architecture and provides automatic recovery from failures at the disk, server, or data center level.
Improved protection and compliance Exchange Server 2010 builds on an already-strong set of features designed to safeguard and preserve your agency's sensitive information. This latest version expedites compliance with internal and regulatory controls by allowing you to easily filter, examine, change, journal, and archive any message in your system, whether it's e-mail, voice mail, or fax. By eliminating your reliance on separate archiving solutions, your agency can save money while also simplifying its legal and compliance processes.
