<p>You knew that eventually Microsoft would get all its updates released to allow users to transition their messaging infrastructures to Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 from Exchange 2010 or Exchange 2007. Additionally, we've entered the final year of even extended support for Exchange 2003. I suspect lot of companies are now seriously investigating their migration scenarios. So the latest news from migration specialists Binary Tree comes at a great time.</p><p>Today, Binary Tree announced the acquisition of ManageRED Software, a company with a range of Active Directory (AD) and Microsoft server migration products. Steven Pivnik, CEO of Binary Tree, is quoted in the company press release to say, "The acquisition of ManageRED's Active Directory products enables us to further enhance our migration offerings while expanding our SMART initiative with technology that enables customers and our partners to leverage solutions that further simplify a migration."</p><p>Related: Microsoft and Binary Tree Partner for Simplified Migrations to Office 365</p><p>Although Binary Tree isn't making any specific product announcements at this time -- we'll have to wait for June and Microsoft TechEd for that, no doubt -- this acquisition certainly enhances an already successful migration portfolio. And with the extra focus on AD migration, we can hope to see some of the peripheral headaches around Exchange migrations become that much easier. ManageRED's CEO Akos Sandor will be joining Binary Tree's Office of the CTO group to help integrate ManageRED's technology into Binary Tree.</p><p><a href="http://windowsitpro.com/blog/binary-tree-acquires-server-migration-vendor-managered">Keep reading...</a></p><p>Read also:</p><p><a href="http://www.marketwatch.com/story/binary-tree-makes-key-technology-acquisition-with-purchase-of-managered-software-2013-04-23">Binary Tree Makes Key Technology Acquisition With Purchase of ManageRED ...</a> (MarketWatch (press release))</p><p>Explore: <a href="http://news.google.com/news/more?ncl=d00gdt-k_2kP9AMch5VGFhMkaDuaM&ned=us">2 additional articles.</a></p>
