Customer Reviews & Comments
I read the first version of this book, I think it was Exchange Server 2000, and the newer editions have kept up with each new release of Exchange. Of course, Microsoft's documentation has also gotten better, but it still usually lacks the ability to bridge the gap between the complexity of the technology and what real people, even those of us with training, can quickly grasp when we need an immediate solution. I've looked at several Exchange books and I prefer McBee's conversational approach to writing and problem solving. The best thing about the book is that it still serves as a great introduction to managing an Exchange organization, while also going into detail on newer technologies. It has lots of examples and a good balance of text to screen-captures. That really helps when you're trying to get others up-to-speed on the basic technology. The chapters on management tools and recipient administration (users, groups, etc...) provides the right amount of detail for quick reference and those who need training. The chapter on client access servers (CAS) is useful, especially on the area of setting up CAS servers during a migration. There is also an entire chapter on SharePoint integration. Just skimming these chapters can answer a lot of questions. The chapter on roles based administration is good but was of limited use in my case, although I can see it being useful to an architect designing a system with many administrators with varying roles. The chapter on virtualization provides mostly broad recommendations. The chapter on e-mail archiving may be of use to those who aren't using a third party product. The book is over 900 pages, but it is still missing a few topics I'd like to read more about, such as setting up database availability groups (DAGs) and best practices for ensuring high availability. If you want DAG coverage, this book is not for you. I would also like to see more step-by-step migration recommendations or a chapter that covers a migration, point-by-point, from start to finish. A chapter on certificates might be nice as well. On the whole, though, the book is very good, easy to read, and is useful to those with a range of pre-existing knowledge.
