You don't have to use the Exchange Management Shell for Exchange Server administration. PowerShell ISE offers clear usability advantages — autocomplete, easier copy & paste, and so on.
1. Start PowerShell ISE as Administrator on an Exchange Server or via remote
2. List the registered PowerShell snap-ins:
Get-PSSnapin -Registered
This shows the available snap-in names.
3. Find the right one — in this case:
Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.SnapIn
4. Add it:
Add-PSSnapin "Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.SnapIn"
That's it. You can now work exactly like in the Exchange Management Shell. Just better :)
