Benefits in Hosting

Using our hosted Exchange system gives you all of the features and benefits you’d expect from Microsoft Exchange / Microsoft Outlook but with greatly reduced costs and none of the hassle.

By purchasing hosted Exchange you’ll receive email as a service. This is a very different concept to the traditional approach of going it alone. If you buy and implement Exchange yourself, you’ll be responsible for running the system. You may have to contract or hire technical staff; you will certainly have to consider things like power, air-conditioning, hardware maintenance backups, security and upgrades. (The list goes on and on!) All of these add up to a high running cost and one that can quickly get out of control.

With hosting you’ll have one fixed monthly fee and you can sit back and let Intercity worry about running the system. You just have to worry about responding to your messages, making your meetings on time and completing your tasks.

Some of the benefits of a hosted solution are:

• No capital investment
• Fixed monthly fees – so no unexpected costs
• Rapid deployment, in many cases you can be up and running within 24 hours
• Future proofed, free software updates at no extra cost
• 24 hour availability and support
• Use your own domain name
• Unlimited users
• Benefit from advanced features of Microsoft Exchange
• High reliability with little or no downtime
• Highly secure environment, giving you piece of mind
• No requirements for specialist knowledge or training
• Automatic backups
  
• Mobile options available, including Blackberry and Microsoft Push devices
• Archive options to meet any of the emerging legal requirements to retain data
