Exchange Reporter Plus Outlook Web Access (OWA) Reports

Exchange mailboxes can be accessed via OWA from any browser or device, making OWA one of the most popular access methods. Although OWA simplifies email access for users, it also introduces new security challenges for administrators: keeping track of who accessed emails on your organization's Exchange servers and in Exchange Online and keeping an eye on Outlook web logins through browsers. These tasks are effectively taken care of by ManageEngine Exchange Reporter Plus' OWA and Outlook on the web usage reports.
