We used Exchange Reporter Plus to monitor administrative activities on our Exchange server. Things like if anyone deleted emails. Also, email tracking and similar.
What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
It's very good. It's improved email management a lot.
It improved the process in the monitoring of Exchange administrator activities on user mailboxes. We can look at that activity.
It makes it easy to create reports for management—things like which Exchange servers have large mailboxes and how many mailboxes are on each server. It provides a high-level view for the administration. So, Exchange Reporter Plus supports the decision-making process with its reporting functionality.
What is most valuable?
We can keep track of how many mailboxes are created, how many are deleted, and things like that.
It's a necessity for auditing to use a tool to monitor email tracking. So, it helps a lot with compliance.
We can use the dashboard to see which Exchange servers are currently having issues, their health, and other details.
The GUI is very good.
What needs improvement?
There is room for improvement in the reporting, maybe having more customizable reports would be good. ManageEngine ERP could do custom reporting.
For how long have I used the solution?
I used it for a month.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is a stable product.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is easy to scale. So, the scalability is good.
I'm the only one to log in to the system. The mailboxes covered around 4,000.
How are customer service and support?
We never had any issues. It's very straightforward, so there haven't been issues. It's deployed in-house on our infrastructure, so everything connects successfully.
So, I used all the features with no problem.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
My company is moving to Office 365. So, they want to use Microsoft InsightApp Data Cloud 23. The mailboxes in on-premises will be moved to the cloud phase by phase. That's why they don't want to invest in Exchange Reporter Plus.
How was the initial setup?
It is very easy to set up.
What about the implementation team?
We did it in-house. The entire set up process took around two days.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing of Exchange Reporter Plus is very reasonable.
What other advice do I have?
Overall, it's very good. It's very user-friendly.
It is a very good tool to monitor whatever activities happen in your Exchange server. You can monitor the health of the server. You can monitor all the user mailbox sizes there.
I would recommend using it.
Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises
