With version 7, harmon.ie brings to market a fresh new look in Outlook, together with innovative capabilities for intelligent email management and SharePoint/Office 365 adoption.

New look

harmon.ie 7 incorporates up-to-date Microsoft Universal Windows Platform and Fluent Design/features, such as icons and other display elements. These new features are available in Outlook on the desktop, in the harmon.ie for Outlook Web Apps, and also in the harmon.ie for Office App.

Intelligent email management

harmon.ie 7 introduces new capabilities to buttress the already strong offering for email and document management using SharePoint and Office 365, and includes the following:

• Using topics, harmon.ie identifies emails that are related to the one you are viewing in Outlook. These are likely candidates for email retention. By previewing the emails, you can identify which ones you want to capture. harmon.ie then enables you to easily capture and classify the emails in SharePoint, without leaving your Outlook window.

• harmon.ie now offers enhanced suggestions for where to save emails and documents. Previously, recent locations were based on where the user recently visited in SharePoint. Now, locations recently accessed within Office 365 are also suggested.

harmon.ie is in sync with Microsoft technologies

As always, harmon.ie continues to work in lockstep with Microsoft and support the technologies currently supported by Microsoft.

On the flip side, we are discontinuing support for deprecated Microsoft technologies, namely, Windows XP, Office 2007. We will also discontinue support for the following SharePoint versions; WSS3, SharePoint Foundation and SharePoint 2007. (Microsoft discontinued support for Windows XP in 2014, and for Office 2007 in 2017).

As an organization, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of intelligent email management. And what’s more, harmon.ie remains the best solution for organizations looking to boost Office 365 and SharePoint adoption. Our partnership with Microsoft continues to grow—our solution, for example, is the first to use the power of the Microsoft Graph to bring together data from across an organization’s Office 365 environment.
