Exchange is being used by businesses large and small to increase productivity and collaboration. Instant 24 hour access to e-mails, contacts, and calendars has become crucial to the day-to-day operation of business. Exchange has given workers the ability to be more productive and in control of when and how they communicate.

Workers regularly utilize Exchange to work at home, in satellite offices, at customer sites, or anywhere else with Internet access. This is especially helpful for business travel. For example, when on the airplane business travelers continue working offline until their next opportunity to reconnect and then the latest data is instantly synchronized.

Exchange enhances collaboration between co-workers. Assistants have access to updated calendars that they can add, change, and delete appointments on. Across the company files, e-mails, contacts and calendars are easily shared through MS Outlook.
