Outlook users will find that its easy to transfer their content and contacts from OWA to Outlook.

As noted in a post on the Microsoft blog, Microsoft has opted to focus more heavily on improving the Outlook user experience on iOS and Android.

OWA mobile app users that also be reminded of the end of OWA functionality with links to download the Outlook app for iOS or Android.

On May 15, 2018, OWA mobile apps will stop working completely on both platforms.

At that time, Office 365 users will be redirected to a link to download Outlook on iOS or Android, depending on their operating system.

Office 365 administrators will receive a notification in the Office 365 Message Center, but they can also use Microsofts instructions available here.

Detailed technical information regarding the retirement of OWA apps is available here.

Considering this is a mid-stream update, I dont think its completely crazy to expect that the next major version of Office for the Mac will include more Exchange support in Entourage.

Even aside from fat client issues, possibly the worst bit was the fact that even with webmail, Microsoft made sure to put non-Internet Explorer users in what the company thought was their proper placethe seedy part of town.

Every version of Outlook Web Access (OWA) had two faces: The fun happy face that users of Internet Explorer on Windows saw, where every version of Exchange put you closer to feature parity with Outlook, and the sad, angry face that everyone else saw that wasto be kindcrippled in comparison.

The Exchange Team could come up with all the reasons it wanted (some more legitimate than others), but the message from Exchange as a product was always clear: If you arent on Windows, well, it sucks to be you.

True, once Microsoft did have an actual half-decent Outlook client for the Mac, but that was done by the Exchange team, and as soon as Mac OS X came out, the company just walked away from it, leaving its Macintosh Business Unit to clean up the mess and try to shoehorn Exchange functionality into Entourage.

For the resources at their disposal, the Entourage team has done an admirable job, with major Exchange improvements with every release.

If you arent on Windows, you get what you get and be happy you even get that.

And something funny happenedreal, concrete change to the usual Only Windows sits at the Adult Table schtick.

The biggest one: a premium version of Outlook Web Access for everyone.

Users of Firefox 3 and Safari 3 (and later) now get the real version of OWAthe same thing that Internet 7 and 8 users get.

And that includes presence support from Office Communications Server (OCS).

Dont take my word for it, check out the screenshots of OWA 2010 running on Safari 4 beta 2 on Paul Robichauxs site.

For companies running Exchange, the fact of an Exchange that no longer segregates OWA users carries multiple benefits.

The number of why cant I questions answered by Because you arent on Windows will drop.

Support gets easier since the which version of OWA questions go down.

True, you have to get Exchange 2010 for this, but, its a great reason to do so.

There are some improvements in Exchange Active Sync (EAS), such as FreeBusy lookup, SMS sync to OWA, and so on.

If its the latter, that would be a great feature for companies using devices like iPhones against Exchange, as the iPhone has supported EAS since version 2 of the iPhone OS appeared last year.

Impact on Entourage Of course, the big unanswered question here is What about Entourage Well, while the Mac BU has been silent about what changes itll bring to Entourage in the next major version of Office on the Mac (Hey guys, call me), the truth is, it hasnt been sitting on its hands waiting for a major paid release.

In January, the Mac BU released the Entourage for Exchange Web Services beta, which replaces the former WebDAV Exchange connection with the newer Web Services connection method.

Note: For those claiming MAPI would fix all of Entourages Exchange issues, MAPI is going away, too.

Web Services are simpler and cleaner, and Microsoft is actually providing a public API for them via MSDN.) By moving to Web Services, Entourage gets: Synchronization of Notes and Tasks (A big one); Category sync (another huge win); Improved performance (everyone Ive talked to using the beta verifies this); Better autodiscovery; Better logging; Support for attachments in Exchange Calendar events; and You can use the Global Address List, (GAL) via Web Services, so you dont need a VPN connection just to find a contact.

Also, from what I can see, when Entourage EWS comes out of beta, it will be a free update for Entourage users.

Yes, thats a guess, but its one Im comfortable making.) The downside To get this, you will have to be either on Exchange 2007 SP1 with Update Rollup 4 or later, or, Exchange 2010.
