Exchange overview

Microsoft Exchange is the world's most popular business email platform. It provides businesses with lots of advanced features, over and above a web based email solution, such as Gmail and Hotmail. For example, with Eclipse Hosted Exchange you get:

Always-synced email (emails are delivered in real time, so you no longer have to press the send and receive button or refresh the page to see if you have any new emails)

Shared calendars that let employees see colleagues’ availability to schedule or rearrange meetings, book conference rooms and plan projects

Shared task lists that allow 'to do' lists to be created and assigned, then shared with team members, clients and suppliers

Mobile email access with push technology (emails are pushed directly to your mobile device, the moment they arrive in your mailbox)

Eclipse Archiving automatically stores and indexes all email messages in real time giving you instant legal and regulatory compliance whilst simultaneously making them available for rapid searching and retrieval. Find out more about this new solution here

For most small and medium sized businesses, the cost of running an in-house Microsoft Exchange server is simply too much. From hardware and software costs, to training, repairs, patches and essential upgrades; it all adds up.

That's why 'Managed Exchange hosting' or 'Exchange outsourcing' makes sense. Exchange server hosting means that a specialist IT company runs the technology and charges businesses a small monthly fee to use it. Everything is managed for you, from virus scanning, spam protection, service maintenance, backup and software upgrades. This allows businesses to benefit from the service at a much lower price.
