Office 365 update: More than 22,000 email accounts have been migrated
Submitted by Information Technology Services
As of Oct. 7, 22,709 email accounts and about 3 terabytes of data have been migrated from Zimbra email to Office 365. The Office 365 implementation team moved student email accounts beginning Aug. 22, which continues through October. This past weekend, Information Technology Services employees — including 156 full-time staff and 94 students — were moved to Office 365.
Some of the many positive comments about Office 365 include the groupings of emails by time frame; the tracking of email history including responses; forwarding of specific emails; the availability of email via the Web or Outlook clients; and more.
