Hi guys, I've been on these lists forever it seems (probably 18 years) but my job is less and less IT-related (being an owner of a small company with about 20 employees and being involved in too many things.)
I went from being reasonably good with Exchange circa 2000 - 2006 to now knowing very little about it. I had a guy that was a trusted consultant that came in and helped me make the move from 2007 to 2010, but he has since gotten out of the consulting business. If you're somewhat competent and familiar with Exchange, these lists are fantastic to help you fill in the gaps, and that's how I used them, but I'm looking for a company now that can, either remotely or onsite, evaluate my server, evaluate my goals and make things happen. We have a really small amount of active users - honestly maybe a dozen active ones. Problem is, some of those users are VERY active, and over the last 21 years, we have all accumulated mailboxes between 15 GB and 30 GB. Yes, I need to learn about Exchange archiving (we use Metalogix right now but that feels out of date...) Search times are very slow. Anyway, I want to get my systems up to date and working faster and better. Who do people use when they want to be hand held and have someone really come in and do the work for them? Any big companies out there I should look at? Thank you very much! Evan
