Can you install the office 365 BPA from a windows 7 workstation, or do you need to install it on the Exchange Server itself, and run it from there?



Hi cf090,

This depends on which BPA you are trying to run. If you are running Office 365 Best Practices Analyzer for Exchange Server 2013 then this needs to be installed on your Exchange server (you can see the requirements here: http://community.office365.com/en-us/w/deploy/office-365-best-practices-analyzer-for-exchange-server-2013-requirements.aspx)

There are other BPAs for O365 such as Office 365 Best Practices Analyzer for your PC but this is designed to see if your PC supports O365 not Exchange. More details here: http://community.office365.com/en-us/w/deploy/office-365-best-practices-analyzer-for-your-pc.aspx

Hope this answers your question! 

Mike
