Microsoft Exchange 2010 has been highlighted as one product that is beginning to drive the organisation’s revenue up this year.

Writing for Datamation, Stuart Johnston stated that as the global economy starts to emerge from the doldrums, this software and others are helping Microsoft to come out of the recession stronger.

According to Mr Johnston, Server Exchange 2010 is "further fuelling Microsoft’s expected enterprise sales".

He added that the company’s new chief information officer, Peter Klein, shares this view and quoted him as saying: "We’ve got a great pipeline [of products] coming, which leaves us well-positioned in 2010 and 2011 as the enterprise [market] comes back."

Mr Johnston went on to state that Microsoft registered record sales for the second quarter of this financial year, largely due to the success of Windows 7.

Last month, Madhusudhan Mendu of Wipro told CXOtoday.com that Microsoft Exchange 2010 is excellent for virtualisation compatibility.
