Key Benefits for Customers Upgrading to Exchange 2013 and Exchange Online in Microsoft Office 365

Binary Tree's E2E Complete Software Provides a Complete Solution for Upgrading to Exchange 2013

Centralized Management
E2E Complete gives administrators a centralized dashboard for scheduling, reporting and forecasting.

• Avoid the chaos and complexity of updating a multitude of spreadsheets
• Start, stop, pause, or reshuffle to prioritize users as needed
• Monitor the project in an easily digestible format
• Leverage the performance metrics of completed migrations to create forecasts for mailboxes in the migration queue
• Shows everything from the estimated migration time of specific mailboxes to a projected completion date for all the mailboxes in the queue

Refined End-User Experience
E2E Complete provides insight and control to end-users with notifications and the ability to reschedule the timing of their upgrade.

• Administrators can schedule migrations for “off hours”
• Administrators can also automatically defer migrations of users who have enabled their out-of-office flag
• E2E Complete notifies users of their migration date in advance—via email or text message
• Users can request a new date on a self-service portal if the scheduled date is not convenient
• Users are notified by email or text message when their upgrade is complete and they can access email again

Streamlined Migration
E2E Complete enables a streamlined migration from Exchange 2003, 2007, 2010 or 2013 to Exchange 2013.

• An industry-leading workflow engine manages migration scenarios
• E2E Complete works with your current Active Directory topology to maximize migration throughput
• With our AD site-aware technology, administrators can easily move mailboxes and leverage the parallelism and redundancy of your environment
• E2E Complete embraces the new asynchronous nature of Exchange 2010 mailbox migrations
• E2E Complete will shuttle data during every available moment, outside of the blackout windows that you define, which ends the guessing game of how many mailboxes can be migrated during a given window
• Our unique “Do Not Migrate Before” value and observation of traditional blackout windows helps ensure that users remain undisturbed during their offline mailbox transfer from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2013
• Advanced analytics provide near realtime updates and project completion forecasts
