Reasonably on topic I think. For larger shops 3rd party provisioning solutions are often a requirement due to the highly distributed nature of data and administration. They provide an excellent way to enforce business logic into the process. While I don't have any actual implementation experience with the Aelita products specifically, I do have a lot of experience with the general concepts surrounding automation of provisioning and management.
Is there is a reason this customer is stuck on Aelita specifically or is the query more generally about the types of products which can do that type of work? There are a number of other products which do similar things including Discus Data's ExMS http://www.discusdata.com/. I believe I have a few others listed at www.mail-resources.com as well in the web links section. Best piece of experience I can share is to spend as much time as possible understanding the customer requirements and business processes as it relates to account provisioning and work to help them streamline and automate the process as much as possible during the implementation. For large organizations, the cost savings of doing the work right the first time can be tremendous, even if it does seem 'less painful' to do it just good enough. -- Chris Scharff, MVP MCSE EMS Sales Engineer MessageOne 512.652.4500 x-244 > -----Original Message----- > From: Charles Marriott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, December 09, 2002 9:26 AM > To: Exchange Discussions > > I have a BIG Exchange 2000 customer that is thinking Aelita > EDR and Event Admin are going to be required to manage > AD/EX2K and such. > > Anyone have experience with this stuff to share? > > tia > > Charles _________________________________________________________________ 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]
