New Tools for Collaboration: A Passion for Exchange Clients
by William Smith
, Issue
Article Synopsis
Microsoft Exchange Server offers basic collaboration tools such as mail, calendaring and a centralized address book, but also offers extended features such as tracking tasks, mobile syncing and telecom integration. In the corporate world, Exchange is the gold standard for messaging servers.
A server is not a server, though, without a client—a front-end "window" for the end-user. In a nutshell a client's responsibility is to take input from its user, send it to the server, receive information back from the server and present the results to the user. Exchange Server is built to communicate with a variety of clients. Some clients take advantage of a lot of Exchange's features while others trade complexity for simplicity.This article was published in the 26.01 issue of MacTech Magazine.
