Free Third-Party Tools For Exchange 2010

Here's some free tools that really help to make the management of Exchange 2010 much easier. These are GUI-based apps, which I know some admins prefer (PowerShell makes quick work of most tasks once you get used to it though).

First up is ADModify, which will let you make bulk modifications to user attributes, such as: disabling accounts, setting Delivery Restrictions, etc.

Next is MFCMAPI, which accesses MAPI stores to help find Exchange and Outlook issues.

Next is the Microsoft Active Directory Topology Diagrammer, which reads your AD configuration using LDAP, and then generates a Visio output of your Active Directory and/or your Exchange Server topology.

Next is the Digicert Utility, which is for testing your SSL Certificates to ensure they are installed correctly.

 And last is CodeTwo Active Directory Photos, which will let you upload photos to AD and manage them easily. It works for Exchange and Lync.
