In Control
Exclaimer Store Compressor allows you to manage your Exchange Store so you can decide exactly what you want it to keep and what you want to do with it.

Both Exchange Server and SBS Server have a default Exchange Store limit of 16-18GB*. When you consider the number of email messages you receive with attachments this store can be quickly filled. Exclaimer Store Compressor addresses this problem by taking over the administration of your Exchange Store keeping it to an efficient size and maintaining its performance.

Integration
This system is totally invisible to the user. Therefore, when they look at their Mailbox in Outlook they won't see anything that is unfamiliar. They can simply open emails and view attachments as they would do normally.

Customizable
It is fully customizable so you can control exactly what the Exclaimer Store Compressor compresses. For example, you can choose to only compress attachments in email messages that are older than 31 days.

Extra productivity benefits
Compressing attachments manually puts a resource demand on your organization as it can take anything from a few second to a few minutes to compress a single file. Exclaimer Store Compressor automatically compresses your email attachments, freeing up time to focus on other tasks and essentially increasing the amount of space in your Exchange Store.

Server resource usage
Exclaimer Store Compressor makes more efficient use of the hard disk space which helps to reduce the amount of time it takes to backup your server and can reduce the amount of time it takes to access messages in your Exchange Store.

What is AD Pictures?

AD Pictures is a utility to allow you to add images to the records in your Active Directory.

Why do I need AD Pictures?

Although Active Directory comes ready with the ability to store images, there is no user interface provided to do this. You must either write a program or use a tool like AD Pictures to store and extract this image data.

What can I use AD Pictures for?

You can store scanned signatures and/or pictures of your users, either for reference or for use with products that can interrogate and extract data from the Active Directory, such as email stationery and disclaiming software like Exclaimer Mail Utilities.

Do I have to change or install anything on my server?

No, AD Pictures is best installed on a workstation. No changes are made to your server or network setup. AD Pictures will simply store the images inside the Active Directory.

Can I control a camera or scanner with AD Pictures?

As long as AD Pictures is installed on a Windows XP system, any Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) source can be controlled and used to import images. Older TWAIN drivers may also work, but we do not officially support this configuration.

What are the limitations of the trial version?

The trial version has all the functionality of the licensed version, but any images that are saved to the Active Directory will have the word 'TRIAL' embedded as a visible watermark across the image.

What do I get when I buy AD Pictures?

You get an email with a registration key that removes the limitations of the trial software. There is no need to re-install the software.
