Exploring the Groups Feature in the New Exchange Admin Center (EAC)
Advanced Collaboration with Streamlined Accessibility to Group Management
The Exchange Admin Center (EAC) is the latest version of Microsoft’s Exchange management tool, and the Groups feature is one of the most powerful features of this new edition. This feature is designed to make it easier for Exchange administrators to manage and organize their users’ groups in a simple, streamlined way. The Groups feature provides access to a wide range of group management options, such as creating, editing, and deleting groups, as well as granting and revoking membership to specific users.
Groups in EAC: Performance and Ease of Discoverability
The primary benefit of the Groups feature in the EAC is its performance and ease of discoverability. The EAC offers a unified view of all the groups in your organization, making it possible to quickly search and filter through them to find what you need. The Groups feature also allows Exchange administrators to quickly access group settings and permissions, which helps them manage group membership more efficiently. Additionally, the EAC allows administrators to make changes to the group settings without having to log into the individual mailboxes, which can save time and resources.
Creating and Managing Groups
Creating and managing groups is a simple process using the EAC. Exchange administrators can create a new group by selecting the “New Group” option from the Groups section in the EAC. Once the group is created, administrators can add and remove members, change the group’s settings and permissions, and delete the group.
In addition to creating and managing groups, the EAC also allows administrators to access the group’s settings, such as the group’s name and description, and the group’s membership. Administrators can also customize the group’s settings, such as setting a limit on the number of members and setting expiration dates for memberships.
Security Features
The Groups feature in the EAC also provides a number of security features. Administrators can set group permissions to control who can access and modify the group’s settings and content. Additionally, administrators can set access policies to control who can view and modify the group’s content. These policies can be used to ensure that only authorized users can access the group’s content.
Conclusion
