BIG Holding is a major investment management company based in Kuwait and the MENA region. The company works with a plethora of businesses from different sectors, such as travel and tourism, logistics, civil construction, energy, education, real estate, and food and beverage. The company believes that its most valuable asset is its human resources and attributes its growth and development mainly to its employees.
The rapidly growing business required rapid growth of its employee base to work on the various businesses it handles. With the increase in employees came the need to effectively manage all the mailboxes in the organization. The IT infrastructure department immediately started facing several issues, particularly in relation to monitoring mailboxes and internal license audits.
Controlling the logons to company mailboxes and monitoring a number of parameters related to mailboxes, particularly mailbox size, was a difficult and time-consuming feat for administrators. The administrators also discovered that they were losing valuable time looking for inactive mailboxes in the organization during internal license audits. Microsoft licenses are not cheap and these dormant mailboxes were hogging licenses that could have been put to better use elsewhere. Being a fast growing business, the company was losing tremendous amounts of time and money due to these issues.
The administrators were often inundated with requests to discover inactive mailboxes, monitor mailbox sizes, and so on. After the multitude of problems they went through, all they wanted was a solution that would completely simplify the administration process and quell their worries. They wanted a cost-effective solution that would be easy to understand, use, and deploy.
The administrators of BIG Holding were already satisfied users of ManageEngine's ADManager Plus, Service Desk Plus, ADSelfService Plus, ADAudit Plus, and EventLog Analyzer. That encouraged them to purchase Exchange Reporter Plus to cater to their Exchange reporting, auditing, and monitoring needs
They found the Exchange Reporter Plus UI easy to understand, which made the administrators' jobs easier. They did not need any specific training for the software—every part of the product was straightforward and self-explanatory.

Capacity planning is now done efficiently with the mailbox monitoring reports by their side.

The administrators leave the change auditing and monitoring to Exchange Reporter Plus and are now free to work on other important issues.
The intuitive and user-friendly nature of the product has also pleased the IT infrastructure department. They haven't faced any issues with the product that would require frantic calls to the Technical Support team.
