Data Center Version
A few words about the Server and Data Center version of Meetical. The Server version as been archived in Nov 2022 and is not available anymore. Existing customers get limited support until the end of life in Feb. 2024.
Data Center is fully supported for Microsoft Exchange based customers.
Hybrid Cloud Setup for Google and Microsoft365
This setup is no longer available since February 2023.
Microsoft Exchange Configuration
This is the recommended Setup for all companies behind the firewall.
Please note the Outlook Add-in in this case, is served directly from Confluence via a custom XML file. It can be deployed entirely behind the Firewall. Some users get confused and try to install the Cloud version from the AppSource store.
But for Data Center and Exchange, users need to ask their admins to install the Add-in for them. Or provide them with the custom XML so they can install the Add-in from their Outlook Web Access (OWA). Reach out to us for consulting offers. Usually, a 500-user DC needs 1-3 days of consulting to get started. Additionally, Solution partners listed on our website are recommended to help roll out and improve the adoption for this productivity App.
See Configure Exchange Service Account for Meetical (with Delegation) on how to set permissions for your Exchange Service account.
Installing the Confluence Outlook Add-in for Data Center / Exchange users
Please note the Outlook Add-in you find in the official Microsoft Appsource store, is only for Confluence Cloud and not compatible with Data Center.
To install the Outlook Add-in for Data Center users, you need to use the XML file which is generated for you in the Meetical Configuration (Go to Confluence Settings and find the option in the left menu).
Navigate to the Admin Section of Meetical in your DC instance. Choose “Microsoft Exchange” as the provider. Follow the Setup, by creating and defining a Service Account with access to the calendars of those users you want to make the Outlook-Add-in available for. Then get the XML file and install the add-in via OWA, Exchange Admin Center, or Power Shell.
Features not available on Data Center
Please note, for the DC version, currently two important features are still missing: An internal Calendar and Automation for recurring meetings. Reach out for the current roadmap status. Most other features are similar to Cloud, such as Custom Templates, Parent Pages, and much more.
