Hi all,
Today is a great day!
I know it’s been a while since I last posted here, but that’s just because I’ve been super busy with lots of things. Besides speaking at IT/Dev Connections and writing the Office 365 for IT Professionals ebook with Tony Redmond and Paul Cunningham, I have been working on some really exciting things at ENow! Amongst other cool new features, we recently developed new remote probes for our Exchange and Office 365 solutions. These probes allow you to monitor specific functionality such as the Autodiscover process or the ability to logon through AD FS from various locations other than your HQ or datacenter. I’m sure that this is something that larger organizations with multiple sites will appreciated!
This being said, I have other good news too! I am excited to share with you that Paul Robichaux, a long-time Exchange Server MVP will be joining the ranks at ENow as Vice President and CTO!
I’ve known Paul personally for a few years now, and I look forward to working with him at ENow. Paul is one of the people who inspired me to work in technology and more specifically in the area of Exchange. Even before I knew Paul personally, I was a big fan of him and his work. The many books and articles he authored have helped me through many of the endeavors in my early career –and they continue to do so today. Needless to say, his track record speaks for itself. And let’s not forget that he used to teach classes for the Microsoft Certified Solutions Master (MCM/MCSM) program as well!
Office 365 is very important to us. Back in 2012, ENow was the first to develop Mailscape 365, our best-in-class Office 365 monitoring and analytics solution. Since then, a lot of things have changed. We work hard to continuously improve our solution. Not only to meet the changing needs of our customers but also to evolve along with Office 365 –which changes faster than ever before. In order to align with the pace of change in Office 365, ENow moved to the Agile development process which allows us to respond more quickly to those changes and push out updates to our customers as quickly as possible. That Paul is joining our team reinforces ENow’s commitment to the future and is a herald of what more is to come!
Behind the curtains we are working on some really interesting things. Unfortunately, I cannot share too much about what that entails just yet. But trust me when I tell you it is BIG! Paul’s background in software development and his expertise in the area of Office 365 will play an important role in solidifying our position as a leading ISV in the Office 365 space as well as in the development of our future products and platforms.
Make sure to keep an eye out on the official ENow blog for future announcements. On my end, I’ll promise to update content on this website a little more often…!
Cheers,
Michael
