Outlook 2013 pst sync on multiple computers
-
I've been using zimbra webmail/desktop for some time, but then after using Outlook 2013 , it seems to be super easy to manage emails, may be its just me! So thought of having the same settings at home machine as well, as I work most times after office hours from home
-
I use OWA for almost everything. Can't remember the last time I was on Outlook. Been months.

Exchange won't change those issues though. PSTs will act the same.
Yeah, but OSTs will fix the issue and work really well. I assume Macs use OSTs the same as Windows? I still prefer the Outlook client to OWA - though the difference are getting pretty small now in Exchange.

OSTs will fix what issue? An OST is just the main mail store for Outlook.

OSTs synchronize with the server. They won't need to have local PSTs anymore, as all the mail will reside on the server.

OWA is actually basically an attempt to copy Zimbra. Zimbra has long been the web interface leader.
OWA's been around years before Zimbra was even released.

And was useless. OWA didn't become useful till after eWeek's famous article stating that Zimbra's web interface was ahead of Outlook itself. Until then OWA was a joke and not a competitor with anyone. After that, Microsoft realized how bad things had gotten and started putting OWA on the road to greatness. It's always been second fiddle to Zimbra but at least it's tuned up now.
Zimbra was a responsive Ajax interface when OWA was old school HTML.

Does the newer OWA handle access to other people's Calendars as easy as Outlook does? I'm more than a bit behind on the Exchange curve (Exchange 2010, no SP).

@scottalanmiller thanks!
But as I mentioned in my previous posts we've been acquired by a much bigger company and all major IT decisions comes from the head office now!
So am no more the decision maker on these. They have a global rollout coming in soon and we will move from Zimbra to exchange.

And they have global tie up with major providers like Microsoft, Adobe etc
