Exchange Migration Scenarios

EdbMails Exchange Migration is a complete and versatile solution for migrating mailboxes, public folders, archive mailboxes and associated data from any Exchange server to a wide range of target platforms. Whether you are migrating to a newer Exchange version, transitioning to Microsoft 365, migrating to IMAP-enabled systems, or exporting data to PST files for backup or compliance, EdbMails handles it all.
