Microsoft Exchange Server is a groupware (workgroup software) for email servers created by Microsoft to compete with IBM's Lotus Domino.
Microsoft Exchange is widely used in businesses, ranking 52nd in the enterprise messaging and collaboration platform market in 2008. It is a product in the Microsoft server range, designed for email, but also for managing calendars, contacts and tasks, which ensures the storage of information and allows access from mobile clients (Outlook Mobile Access, Exchange Active Server Sync) and web clients (browsers such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Safari (Apple)).
Following the cloud computing trend, Microsoft Exchange has been available since 2009 through a SaaS offering called Microsoft Online Services under the name Exchange Online. This offering has now been replaced by Microsoft Office 365.
