MX-Sync is
an Outlook synchronization utility which synchronizes
data bi-directionally (i.e. two-ways) between standard
Microsoft Outlook and/or Exchange Server folders (both
Private Mailboxes and Public Folders) and a Microsoft
SQL Server (or any other) database. So you can sync
Outlook data to SQL, SQL Server data to Outlook/Exchange
Server folders, or Exchange Private/Mailbox folders
to Public Folders. MX-Sync caters for scenarios where
data is being updated in either or both databases.
It is useful in situations where Outlook users are
updating Public Folder information which must be constantly
synchronized back to a SQL database, and/or want to
use standard Outlook Personal folders (Contacts, Inbox,
Calendar, Tasks, etc.) to interact with data that is
stored in a SQL Server back-end ERP, accounting or web
database system |

A common scenario is a web
site SQL (or Oracle, MySQL, etc.) database where customers
are registering, logging on, etc. that needs to be kept
in sync with an Outlook/Exchange Contacts folder that
is used for profiling these customers in more detail
and e-mailing them information relating to requests
logged on the web site.
Another example is where you want
to keep Outlook Companies and Contacts folders synchronized
with a SQL Server-based ERP or accounting system such
as Great Plains, so that again the sales and marketing
personnel can easily interact with these customers using
standard Outlook functionality. |
