Opt-in or Opt-out of the Customer Experience Improvement Program

  • Article

 

Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP3, Exchange Server 2010 SP2

The Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP) collects anonymous information about how you use Microsoft Exchange 2010 and the problems that you might encounter. You can choose a level of participation. For example, you can choose to opt-out either your entire organization or just specific servers. If you decide not to participate in the CEIP, the servers are opted-out automatically.

You can join the CEIP during installation of Exchange 2010, or you join and specify your participating servers after you've set up your organization. For more information about the program, see Microsoft Customer Experience Program FAQ.

What Do You Want to Do?

  • Use EMC to opt-in or opt-out of CEIP
