Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Add-on works great, sync mail, address book. Simple setup, great value really to communite with exchange when you unwillingly are forced to use it in corporate enviroments. Thanks for the great work here.

Funciona perfeitamente para enviar e receber e-mails. No entanto, o sincronismo dos contatos não está ocorrendo. Indefinido se o problema é minha configuração ou se há um problema no add-on.

I would like to say that this plugin has worked flawlessly allowing me to connect to my companies exchange server without me needing to use outlook for features like mail merges (things I cannot do via the webmail). So with out this extension I would not be able to any of the more advanced email management stuff I currently do without it.
I found the reviews that gave this extension a poor rating had a surprising number provide low ratings not do to the extension not working or crashing but do to the fact the developer was not giving it away for free. There is an extensive free use period of 60 days and you can get a temp session license in a pinch if you really needed it and were out of the 60 day period. That being said the developer has really built in a lot of ways to evaluate it to try it for yourself with out any risk or having to pay for it. Rating the product not based its performance or if it worked for you and solely on if it was free or not does not make a helpful review of the product. $10 a year is $0.84 a month and the outrage that I see in some of the other review about that does not tell you anything about how the extension preforms.
I recommend that you try this great piece of software if you are looking for a solution to let you connect your Thunderbird client to an exchange server and take advantage of that 60 trial. If it works for you and you find it saves you time and productivity like I have weigh that time verses $0.84/month. If it does not work for you look for another solution.

Exquilla randomly stops working on windows, and there is no reply to my support tickets. I *paid* for this addon, and I consider it a perfect waste of my money.

It works great, and the price is very reasonable. It will be nice when the calendar provider is fully integrated. Without this addon I'd be stuck logging into Outlook web interface, which is pretty featureless on Linux.
As far as the complaints about it not being free, I don't see what that has to do with how good the add-on is. I prefer the donation request model, because it feels less intrusive, but I realize that can be impractical.
They could also give the user an activation key each year, so we don't have to create an account. I'm more turned off by having to give personal information, than by having to pay.

It does not work for me... and I obtained no help. I've paid for nothing.

I have to use an exchange email adress for one of my customers.
With this plugin i can keep all different email-accounts (private, office, customer,...) at one place (thunderbird).
8€/year for not having to login into a web interface all the time and keeping my emails at one place is definitely fair in my opinion, because it saves a lot of time.
In the free test period I experienced not a single problem with the plugin.

Great add-on, does exactly what it's supposed to. I have no problem paying a tiny fee to support development of this add-on when there's nothing else available like it and no one else interested in developing their own. While it would be great if it was free OSS, devs need to eat, too.

Works fine in a corporate environment, author is quick on support, very easily worth the $10. Happily been using for the last year. The author is a Thunderbird contributor: http://mesquilla.com/2014/07/31/thunderbirds-future-the-tldr-version - I'd happily pay him to keep TB alive.

A great add on, worked first time and worked all settings out automatically, the guy deserves his $10.00. Barrie

I've been using Outlook via the webmail for some time, which is a huge pain. The webmail times out very fast, hardly anything can be configured, and it is crazy slow. Very bad for productivity. Then I tried Thunderbird with ExQuilla, and things work like a dream. My productivity has gone up immensely. I will do some more testing, but expect to role it out in the company soon. The costs are nothing compared to the productivity increase. Try it and you will see. I also tried DavMail with Thunderbird, this is much slower, but seems to work. You will need to run DavMail separately to get this working, which is not so nice in a corporate environment. Running DavMail on the server is possible, but will not work for people who bring their laptop home to read email.

I used Outlook for the FIRST time last week; it has not been a pleasant experience. I started using Thunderbird when it first came out and I like how that works a lot better. This plugin means I can keep using it.

My company uses exchange, and lets be fair that simply won't change because I don't follow the same model as most employees.
In the past I've bothered reverse engineering everything and setting up IMAP, SMTP and LDAP to provide everything I needed. Now that I'm in a new job and after finding ExQuilla for Exchange, I'm stoked. I now work for a significantly larger company which means there is less ability for me to actually figure out how these systems work and more of an expectation that everyone will just use Exchange.
This addon is well worth it and I'm glad that my company will support this developer.

FINALLY! YES!! I've been trying forever to get my Exchange e-mail account to sync in Thunderbird. I tried every option, every setting, and was constantly frustrated. To my great surprise, this plugin worked PERFECTLY and only took a minute to sync the whole account.
All I did was install the plugin, go to Tools --> ExQuilla for Microsoft Exchange --> Add Exchange Account. Then I used the Auto Detection options and let it do the configuration itself. It did everything right. The only thing I had to input myself aside from name/pass/email was the domain name--so it might be helpful to know that.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. This was on Windows 8. Solved a very difficult and frustrating problem for me, in seconds.

This integrated fantastically well with my corporate Exchange account; now I can use all my favorite Thunderbird addons and have the space saving ergonomic layout of Tb, plus ease of folder traversing "Next Unread Email" and tabbed mail; I don't even have to be on VPN anymore to manage my mail.
Connecting to the EWS server on Thunderbird Release was an absolute breeze, the price is really good and definitely worth the added comfort and stability. As a developer I can appreciate that this is actually not an easy task to pull off, and Kent even offered some support for a Calendar provider.
In terms of productivity, this is a huge win over the free browser access, the money spent on this was basically made back on in time on the first day.
Now if we could just have another addon that connects the Thunderbird UI to the server side filters (Microsoft calls them "message rules") ! :-)

After my company upgraded to exchange 2013 I was having trouble getting ExQuilla to connect again. While our IT department was trying to resolve a problem with a bad certificate being served I opened wireshark to determine exactly which host ExQuilla was connecting to. I then determined that it was using HTTP basic authentication to request the autodiscover.xml file over plain text and I was able to properly decode my password from the base64 authentication token.
ExQuilla did not even attempt an SSL connection to the exchange server for the discovery. This is unacceptable for the IT security policy and may even be the reason why the autodiscovery service was returning a 401 even with the right credentials. I now can not use ExQuilla for technical implementation reasons (it won't connect to our exchange 2013) and because it has been demonstrated to be out of compliance for our internal security policy.

An excellent add-on. Works as claimed and I've been using it for almost 1 year on 2 different platforms.

I absolutely loath LookOut, and since the merger our mails have been moved from Google Apps to Exchange, that has a god awful webmail client.
So I much welcome this extension, though I'd preferred it to be in the core.
About the pricing, though I would've preferred a higher one time fee, over the current yearly model, it's really not that much to continue development.
5 stars from me.

After installing the plugin, I was able to configure it for my Exchange account very easily without manual futzing. Auto-detection worked perfectly. In contrast, settings auto-detection did not work for my Android phone's mail app, though I *eventually* got that right. This indicates to me that the author has a much better than average understanding of Exchange and takes the plugin seriously.

It works. It connects (once one figures out the full URL needed to talk to office365). It makes e-mail possible when a client decides they are too good to use open standards and instead insist on using a proprietary protocol.
And $10/y is a pittance considering the alternative is to use webmail, or Outlook.
