Did you want justifications for IT or reasons it will help your business? Are you looking for a way to justify it so you can use it or are there actual business needs that E2K provides?
The efforts in your justification may well point to it being unnecessary.

Exchange 2000 with Microsoft Windows 2000 has a single, enterprise directory, the Microsoft Active Directory directory service, for all file, print, application, user, and other messaging objects. When Microsoft Office documents are stored in Exchange 2000, Office users can take advantage of the power of Outlook to view, sort, search, and manage documents with the same tools they currently use for their messages, calendars, and contacts. Tightly integrated instant messaging, chat, multimedia conferencing, and mobile services Enhanced functionality for Microsoft Internet Explorer users When accessed through Internet Explorer , Outlook Web Access closely resembles the full client interface (see Figure 1). Outlook Web Access is also more efficient for Internet Explorer users because it does not require communication with the Outlook Web Access server for every mouse click in the interface support for embedded items Outlook Web Access now supports embedded items such as messages, appointments, and meeting requests, as well as contacts and posts. Support for public folders that contain contact and calendar items AD and Exchange can now be managed thru a single interface. however I am afraid this might not be enough!" -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of M2web Sent: Friday, September 27, 2002 12:56 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Why move to E2K I have been asked by our CTO to justify why we should go to E2K and spend $20000.00 as result of the move on new real time mirroring software. I have gathered the usual MS stuff but would you have any compelling reason that I could also add or point me to other resources. Thanks the extra 20 grand comes as a result of Double Take (which unfortunately we already own) not supporting E2K like Exch 5.5 (if you look at their site they never mention this) and thus the need to go to NSI Geo Cluster (another crap, pardon my english) as our CTO wants an automatic failover just in case there is no one around. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
