MX-Sync is an Outlook
synchronization utility which synchronizes data bi-directionally
(i.e. two-ways) between standard Microsoft Exchange
Server folders (both Private Mailboxes and Public Folders)
and a Microsoft SQL Server database. So you can sync
Outlook data to SQL or SQL Server data to Outlook/Exchange
Server 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 Outlook 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
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.
