DrCheese Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Clearly I have nothing better to do than setup a VM domain @ home this evening and install exchange 2013 Below are a *ton* of screenshots from the new OWA. Ask me if you want anything I'm missing. 2
glennda Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 If I'm honest - it looks hideous! I personally think the OWA in exchange 2010 is spot on.
DrCheese Posted July 17, 2012 Author Posted July 17, 2012 It's not so bad if you pick one of the themes. It also now loads photos from Active directory (If you have them) Previously only Outlook 2010 did this. 1
glennda Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Themes make it look better - personally i don't like the metro style look (not liking metro doesn't help!). I prefer having the sections defined by lines rather then just looking too plain.
DrCheese Posted July 17, 2012 Author Posted July 17, 2012 Metro on iPhone The whitespace on the full OWA makes some things confusing, i.e creating a new calender entry doesn't explicitly show where you start entering the body of the entry (where I wrote "Hello!" on this screenshot http://www.edugeek.net/attachments/forums/enterprise-software/14677d1342559026-exchange-2013-owa-screenshots-windows-server-2008-r2-x64-2012-07-17-21-44-22.png )
SYNACK Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 My god, it's full of Windows Phone... apologies to Kubric. I like it apart from the random YELLING. You need to medicate your developers properly otherwise their rage leaks out.
john Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 I like some bits and not others, I like how its very Windows Phone but I have a Windows Phone so guess that is why I like that, the blandness isn't attractive, but I am sure a quick command can force a common theme across an organisation as the yellow in EX 2010 looks nice and simple to start with Will have to see how it matures.
DrCheese Posted July 18, 2012 Author Posted July 18, 2012 EAC is gone, It's been replaced with the online only ECP (See the last few screenshots in the first post) I'm undecided if this is a good thing or not.
gshaw Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 Someone in the design team must be a real fan of Windows 1.0 \ 2.0... the Windows 8 default cyan \ blue theme looks like we've landed in the 80's again Not a fan of the vast amounts of of white space, too bright for my liking and no distinction between areas of the screen, same with a lot of the Windows 8 default Metro apps
pritchardavid Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 Can't wait for this to come out, this is looking decent!
mtillbrook Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 hmmm, yeah i can't say I'm a fan although it looks a lot like the replacement to Hotmail in Outlook.com!! Funny how that happened!
RabbieBurns Posted December 9, 2012 Posted December 9, 2012 how do you do things like change database name and path and all that sort of stuff? Am I going to have to learn all the powershell commands now?
