The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

Asked by cymrich in Exchange Email Server, Outlook Groupware Software
I'm becoming quite unpopular with some people around where I work because I keep insisting that PST files on network shares is a bad idea and that they need to go through their e-mail and delete stuff. I've read all about the issues with pst files on network shares and I know they are contributing to many issues on the network. I also know that if people use PST files locally their old e-mails will never get backed up.
I read something that mentioned OST files somewhere and made it sound like an alternative... but when I actually tried making an OST and found I couldnt even change the default location off my local drive then it didn't seem so great an idea suddenly.
so... is there any solution I can use that will allow the unwashed masses to keep every email that was ever sent to them throughout all eternity, allow for them to be backed up (cause we all know backup capacity is infinite too), and all on a budget that would make uncle scrooge seem generous (i.e. free... or maybe they would pay us)?
all jokes aside I need alternatives to PST files... one person's plan, which I debunked via e-mail but I suspect she will still try, is to put their PST files on USB drives... I keep trying to stress corruption issues and file size limitations, but the responses I get seem to indicate my pleas for sanity fall on deaf ears.
