What is Hosted Exchange?
Email, collaboration and scheduling tools have become critical factors to the success of any business. Unfortunately, small and mid-size businesses (SMBs) often lack a large IT budget or in-house team to implement and maintain the sophisticated messaging software they need. Yet SMBs need this critical toolset in order to succeed in the marketplace.
We have a better solution.
Microsoft Exchange Server is used by the majority of large corporations for their email, calendars, contacts and files. The Exchange 2007 server powers the full collaboration functions of Microsoft Outlook 2007, such as group calendars, contacts and file-sharing. We provide the latest version of this as a hosted service. You can subscribe to this on-demand service for a low monthly fee – instead of paying tens of thousands of dollars upfront for expensive servers and software licenses, hiring specialist IT staff to install and maintain the system and being responsible for a 24x7 infrastructure. We let you focus on your core business. Hosted Microsoft Exchange 2007 means that we provide all hardware and software, then run and maintain it for you in a tier-4 datacenter. You pay a low monthly fee, and can access your email using Outlook 2007® or Entourage® on your desktop, Outlook Web Access (OWA) in any Web browser, or wirelessly from a device like the BlackBerry®, Windows Mobile device, iPhone or Treo.Advanced Features
People running Exchange as their email server typically use Microsoft Outlook 2007 as their email ‘client’. Among many advanced features, this lets them:- Securely access email remotely – via the Web or a mobile device like a BlackBerry or Treo
- View colleagues’ up-to-date calendars and schedule meetings
- Assign and manage company tasks on central ‘to do’ lists
- Manage contact information of employees and customers and access it anytime
- Share documents across the team so everyone’s working from the most current version
Exchange is a quantum leap from basic POP3 or IMAP4 email and makes your team much more productive through constant access to email, calendars and contacts, as well as important files and information.
Basic POP and IMAP email systems, which are currently used for accessing email, are more suited to home and personal user, rather than business, and were never designed to include the broader, richer collaborative tools that Exchange has made possible.
Now that hosted Exchange is available for no upfront cost, with low monthly fees, smaller and mid-sized companies are increasingly realizing the instant competitive advantage that Exchange can give them.
