Experience a tighter connection between Entourage and Microsoft® Exchange Server and greater parity between Entourage and Outlook with Entourage® 2008, Web Services Edition.
Entourage 2008, Web Services Edition uses Exchange Web Services instead of WebDAV providing Mac users a better Exchange experience.

This rebuilt version of Entourage 2008 not only offers performance and reliability improvements to e-mail and calendaring but new syncing of tasks, notes and categories, and Autodiscovery.

Enhanced Autodiscover service to easily configure account and automatically keep settings up to date.
Synchronization between Exchange Server and Entourage 2008 Notes, Tasks, and Categories.
Addition of an Enable Logging (troubleshooting) preference, to log all events that can be used as diagnostic information.
Built-in logging with extensive reporting of diagnostic information.
Use of attachments in Entourage for Exchange calendar events.
Resolve names when composing mail and invites while outside of work without requiring VPN and LDAP.
