WHAT’S NEW AND IMPROVED IN EXCHANGE SERVER 2007?
OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY

Server Roles New A modular system of five server roles reduces
the time required for installation, minimizes
manual configuration by the administrator, and
increases security by limiting the surface area
available for attack.
Exchange Best Practices
Analyzer (ExBPA)
Improved Now embedded in setup and available through
the Exchange Management Console toolbox,
the Exchange Best Practices Analyzer not only
identifies configuration discrepancies that may
lead to service outages and reliability problems,
but also assists with deployment and setup.
Outlook Autodiscover New Configuring Microsoft Office Outlook
®
2007
to connect with Exchange Server 2007 is
easier than ever. If the user is logged on to the
network, Exchange Server 2007 automatically
configures the user’s Outlook profile.
Exchange Management Pack
for Microsoft Operations
Manager
Improved Manual configuration of Microsoft System
Center Operations Manager is greatly reduced.
Rules directly align with Exchange Server 2007
server roles, and management can be done
using the Exchange Management Console or
Exchange Management Shell.
Single Migration Engine Improved All mailbox migration tools have been
combined into a single, comprehensive tool
that allows administrators to perform intra- or
inter-organizational migrations, minimizing
complexity.
Administrator Productivity
Exchange Management
Console
Improved An improved graphical user interface simplifies
the navigation tree down to three layers of
depth, with actions easily discovered through a
new action pane. Management and trouble-
shooting tools are integrated in the toolbox.
Exchange Management Shell New A new command-line interface, based on
Windows PowerShell, allows administrators to
automate routine and repetitive tasks.
Flexible Permission Model Improved Permissions become more granular and
straightforward to manage. The permissions
model enables a set of new, predefined
administrator roles.
