1. Security Vulnerabilities
Without regular security updates, your systems will become prime targets for cyberattacks. Hackers often exploit known vulnerabilities in unsupported software to gain access to your business.
2. Compliance Issues
Many industries have strict regulations regarding their data protection rules, using unsupported software can lead to compliance violations, resulting in fines or legal consequences.
3. Operational Disruptions
Without bug fixes and technical support you may find minor issues can escalate, leading to system downtimes and loss of productivity for your entire team.
As the EOL date approaches, businesses have two options to choose between which are upgrading and migrating.
Microsoft plans to release Exchange Server SE in the second half of 2025, with the current release date set for July 2025. This version will operate on a subscription model, requiring active software assurance. It’s designed for businesses that prefer to maintain on-premises servers.
Transitioning to Microsoft 365 ahead of the Exchange end-of-life offers numerous benefits, including, automatic updates to ensure you always have the latest features and security patches installed as well as the option to scale and adjust resources as your business grows.
Another incredible tool if you are already using Microsoft 365 Services is the increased integration opportunities this migration will allow.
Don’t worry, that’s what were here for!
If you’re uncertain about the best course of action or need assistance with the transition, our IT support team is here to help. Contact us today to discuss your options and ensure a smooth transition away from unsupported Exchange versions.
