Hello,
Does Quest Rapid Recovery support Microsoft Exchange 2019? If not when will Exchange 2019 be supported?
Thank you.
This is also a major concern for us too. We have had to install several exch 2016 servers recently, and then plan to jump to 2019 when supported.
As RR doesn't support 2019, this has lead to more inconvenience, time and money being spent. Sadly it has also made us look at other products..
Ideally this product support would come out before we are forced to move apps. Everyone is replacing servers recently due to 2008 end of life, so this has really affected us.

To add another "me too" to this issue, I have two exchange 2019 servers that need to make a move to a different state (one at a time), and cant move the mailbox's to them until I can get good backups. exchange 2016 wont DAG with 2019.
We hear you loud and clear. Support is coming very soon. We're on schedule to release the new version that will support it next week if all goes well.
Hi Tim, thats really good news (taken with pinch of salt of course)
I know its not supported, but i really dont want to install 2016 exch in the next 2 weeks or so, to tem have to jump - will appassure backup the 2019 os/exch but simply without the DB checks?
My understanding is Exchange 2019 support is going to be complete support. So that includes metadata gathering, log truncation, DB checks, etc. The only thing we still won't support in 2019 server is REFS because Microsoft made some pretty hefty changes between 2016 REFS and 2019. So don't put your DBs on REFS and you should be fine.
So using it now, just means we get a VM backup, but the checks wont happen - until supported in the next release?
Yes, using it now you get a backup of the machine, but you don't get any of the Exchange specific features like log truncation or DB checks.
