Exchange On-Premises vs. Exchange Online – A Law Firm Bakeoff

The cloud has been a hot topic for a few years and most firms are working to understand if/when infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), software-as-a-service (SaaS) and platform-as-a-service (PaaS) solutions will fit into their technology plans. Recently, directory-as-a-service, identity-as-a-service and others have further expanded the cloud service landscape.

In this webinar, we will focus on arguably the most important application in a law firm — its messaging system. Microsoft Exchange is the de facto standard for on-premises messaging systems and Exchange Online, a component of Office 365, has become the standard for hosted messaging solutions. We’ll discuss licensing, pricing, integration, data privacy and sovereignty concerns, migration considerations and more to help you determine whether Exchange Online will meet the needs of your firm.
