Mailbox Conversion

Manually converting mailbox types in Exchange can be time-consuming, error-prone, and often requires complex scripting, especially when managing multiple mailboxes across departments or roles. Whether you are repurposing a mailbox for shared access or assigning it to a meeting room or resource, performing these actions using native tools can be tedious and inefficient.

ADManager Plus' Mailbox Conversion feature eliminates these challenges by enabling you to seamlessly convert existing mailboxes to shared, regular, room, or equipment types using a user-friendly interface. With just a few clicks, you can:

• Manage mailbox conversions in bulk through a centralized interface.
• Eliminate the need for PowerShell scripts or manual steps.
• Quickly adapt mailbox types as user or resource requirements change.
