We are looking to move our mail from an on-premises Exchange 2007 installation to a cloud-based Office365 version.  If any of you have done something similar, would you or someone on your team be open to an offline conversation to share your experiences?  Thanks much.  Greg.

Tilmon, I would be happy to share what I learn with you.  Can you reach out to me again in a couple weeks, and I suspect that by then I will have accumulated a number of opinions?  Thanks.  Greg.

 

We are also looking at that migration. Please include me as well. Thanks.

Message from mike.cunningham@pct.edu

We are currently on live@edu and have to plan a migration to 365 for some time next fall. live@edu is being discontinued

 

We are starting our migration now with the intention of completing by fall 2013. I would be happy to discuss the experience.

 

 

Cheers,

Russ

We are currently a live@edu customer and are migrating to Office 365 in June. We have a formal project underway and we are working with a 3rd party consulting company that is assisting us. We would be happy to talk to anyone who is interested in hearing where we are at in the process.

 

It is also safe to tell everyone that moving from a localized messaging environment to Microsoft’s cloud-based solution has been pain free and very gratifying.  Over the two years we’ve been using live@edu we’ve had two outages (very brief) and we’ve freed up system administrators time that is better served than spent working on a commodity technology service.

 

We moved both students and faculty/staff email to the service.

 

Thanks,

 

Jeff

Hi Greg,

Furman University has been using Office365 for over a year. All students moved to Office365 last March, and we used a phased approach for faculty and staff (started January 2012 and finished moving everyone to Office365 in September.) While we didn't move from Exchange, we did move from another system that was hosted on campus.

Let us know how we can help.

Best,

Fred

We are considering moving students from Live@EDU to O365 and at the same time move faculty and staff from on prem exchange (2007) to O365. So we are also interested. 

Sent from my iPhone

Louisiana State University completed a migration from Exchange 2003 to O365 in November.  We’d be happy to share our experience. 

 

Best,

A pretty good BAA is available under the Net+ contract Internet 2 negotiated with Microsoft. With the BAA in place Office 365 is HIPPA compliant. Charlie McMahon Vice President of Information Technology Chief Technology Officer Tulane University 504-988-8555 (O) 504-256-6688 (C)
Thank you Stephen. Cheers.-grish >>> Stephen G Landry 2/23/2013 9:52 AM >>> Dave, Yes, that's a valid point. You do need to have some on premises Microsoft services, such as Active Directory and Forefront Identity Management, to make stand up Office 365 for your users. Since we're a Microsoft Exchange shop, we already have most of what we need to manage Office 365. We're not thinking of this as standing up a free email service, rather we're thinking of this as moving our existing Microsoft Exchange infrastructure to the cloud. I agree the barrier to entry is probably steeper for campuses that don't have Microsoft Exchange on premises, but the barrier is much lower if you already have the necessary Microsoft infrastructure in place. Hope this helps. Steve Stephen G. Landry, Ph.D. Chief Information Officer Seton Hall University Tel.: 973-761-7386 Email: cio@shu.edu Twitter: @landryst Facebook: www.facebook.com/landryst LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/landryst

By way of background information for this discussion, below and attached are data from the 2012 Campus Computing Survey (in aggregate and by sector) for the percentages of institutions that have migrate student and faculty email to third-party providers (primarily Google and Microsoft), and also to cloud-based "office" applications.

The survey data clearly reveal an institutional willingness to migrate student email while, at present, also to retain the institutional hosting of faculty and administrative email accounts.  Additionally, as of fall 2012, less than a fifth of campuses participating in the annual Campus Computing Survey reported migrating to hosted "office" applications provided by either Google or Microsoft (range: 25.6 pct for private universities to 14.8 pct for public four-year colleges).



My thanks to all who participated in the 2012 survey.

Subject: Re: Office365 for Education
All - There are 7 universities involved in the service validation for O365 as an Internet2 NET+ contract -- and as Charlie has indicated, the O365 Amendment that has been negotiated (which builds on the earlier amendment negotiated by the Common Solutions Group) includes the BAA and provides for most if not all of our community's compliance needs. For those that are interested, we now have in place a NET+ Microsoft Azure offering that is based on an amendment that has near identical language regarding compliance (HIPAA/BAA) and allows for the purchase of Azure compute and storage using an "irrevocable right of use" (IRU) model (may allow for treatment of such purchases as "capital assets"). We are a few weeks away from having the broader agreements for O365 finalized to where we can announce the NET+ O365 offering as ready for early adoption/general availability. I should note that we are working with Microsoft and the participating universities to enhance support, develop a more streamlined migration process, establish a "community of practice" site where universities and Microsoft technical resources can share best practices (and concerns), and to work out how integration with InCommon can be accomplished. If you would like to get further information, please write netplus@internet2.edu or reach out to me or Andrew Keating (andrew@internet2.edu).
