Applicable have recently completed a 3 month project to migrate a 250 seat organisation to Microsoft Business Productivity Online (BPOS). The customer had initially considered using the native Exchange Migration Wizard for Lotus Notes but found that the native tool would not make the migration as easy as initially thought and didn’t provide all the functionality of the Quest’s Notes Migrator tool - the return on investment that Notes Migrator for Exchange would provide was the key driver behind the decision to select Applicable.

Moving to "the Cloud": Migrating from Lotus Notes to Microsoft Exchange Online Standard using Quest Software Tools

Hosted e-mail services are an increasingly attractive alternative to on-premises e-mail platforms, offering reduced costs, increased protection from outside threats, and enhanced operational efficiency. Applicable and Quest Software can ensure a fast and seamless migration from Lotus Notes to Microsoft’s hosted e-mail offering, Microsoft Exchange Online, which is part of the Business Productivity Online Suite.

Quest's Notes Migrator converted users’ mail, calendars, tasks, address books, archived information and distribution lists, while preserving such information as dates, times, HTML formatting, senders, receipts and attachments. Users could reply to migrated messages seamlessly.

 BPOS in less than 100 words.
