VMware DEM Outlook PST files

Hello,

we have a non-persistent VDI-Environment and Outlook is working reeaaally slow.

Is there a way to export and import the .pst files so the users don't have to wait till outlook loads all their mails before it launches? 

I've read that there is an option with writable volumes but since they take up a lot of space and are not compatible with our environment I would like to handle the things via the DEM or something else.

One option is to use FSLogix Office containers.

I have messed around with Office 365 and DEM for over a year now. 

Eventually I gave up and just assigned users App Volume writables (after having tested FSLogix).

Save yourself the headaches and performance issues, deploy and use App Volume writables with Office 365. 

You can use DEM to apply Office 365 specific settings, but store all the office data on the writables. Trust me.
