Microsoft Exchange 2016 en 2019: Einde van een tijdperk

Microsoft Exchange 2016 and 2019: End of an era

January 21, 2025

Microsoft has announced that support for Exchange Server 2016 and 2019 will end on Oct. 14, 2025. This means that these versions will no longer receive technical support, bug fixes or security updates after this date

What does this mean for users?

Although Exchange 2016 and 2019 will still function after October 2025, they will become more vulnerable to security threats and other technical issues. Microsoft therefore recommends users take action now to avoid future problems

Migration options

Users have two main options: migrate to Exchange Online or upgrade to the new Exchange Server Subscription Edition (SE), which will be launched later this year

Migrating to Exchange Online: This is the simplest and most recommended option. By moving to the cloud, users benefit from the latest features and technologies, including advanced AI capabilities not available for on-premises installations

Upgrading to Exchange Server SE: For organizations that want to continue using their Exchange servers on-premises, the new SE version offers a good solution. Users of Exchange 2019 can upgrade directly to SE, while users of Exchange 2016 must first upgrade to Exchange 2019 before moving to SE

Preparing for the future

Microsoft has provided specific tools and resources to make the migration as smooth as possible. For example, the FastTrack program provides support from planning to execution so that organizations can transition without hassle

The end of support for Exchange 2016 and 2019 marks an important transition period for many organizations. By migrating to Exchange Online or preparing to upgrade to Exchange Server SE now, companies can ensure that their email infrastructure remains secure and up-to-date. Analyst ICT specializes in these types of upgrades. So if your organization needs help, please take a moment contact on.

And why is so much expected of it? From Ordinary Computer to Quantum Computer To understand quantum computers, it's helpful to first look at how a normal computer works.

With our feet in the mud

Here we are. Not quite recognizable anymore, thanks to AI trying to protect children. Understandable, of course. But believe us: these really are Berry and Frank. More than ten years apart, but in reality, we've always been brothers from another mother. And what do we have in common? A lot... and at the same time, almost nothing. Berry is often the good cop. Calm, down-to-earth, and always working to get things done. I'm usually the bad cop. Direct, critical, and always looking for ways to improve. But that combination is precisely what works. What completely unites us, though, is our love for...
