Microsoft Hosted Exchange E-mail
Overview
E-mail has become a high-demand application that is used companywide and requires around-the-clock availability. To stay competitive in today’s business environment, you need sophisticated messaging tools with features like mobile access and shared calendars. Yet these tools can come with complex needs for implementation, management, and support.
Now you can enjoy the benefits of business class e-mail in a pay-as-you-go model that enables you to scale up or down as needed, minimizing your financial risk. Microsoft Hosted Exchange can help you free up valuable capital, IT staff, and other costly resources for more effective, strategic use within your organization.
Advantages of Hosting
Perhaps the number one advantage of hosting is the peace of mind that comes with the service. With Hosted Exchange, you gain all the messaging functionality you need with none of the administrative burden. As part of your monthly service, most Hosted Exchange providers offer:
| • | Robust bandwidth |
| • | Built-in redundancy for peak performance |
| • | Server, network, and infrastructure security features |
| • | Timely upgrades and security patches |
| • | On-site maintenance and support |
| • | Skilled, experienced, certified staff |
Whether you lack in-house expertise or have the resources but prefer they focus on more valuable projects, a Hosted Exchange solution provides all of the mobility and information sharing functionality needed for business-class messaging.
End User Benefits
With Microsoft Exchange as the mail server and Microsoft Office Outlook as your client, your employees can do more than send and receive e-mail—they can share calendars, folders, and contacts and they can access their information from Windows Mobile powered devices. Different versions of Outlook are available for desktop, browser, and mobile access, so you’re connected, whether you’re in the office, traveling, or working at home. And since you connect to the same Exchange server, your inbox can stay synchronized, no matter which Outlook client you’re using.
Microsoft Hosted Exchange is the e-mail solution designed to help organizations:
| • | Access information, even when out of the office |
| • | Get more out of an e-mail system so that employees can get more done |
| • | Gain the peace of mind that comes from a professionally managed service |
