Are you dissatisfied with your e-mail provider? Do you get too much spam? Are your e-mail accounts cumbersome to manage? Does your e-mail provider limit the number of outgoing messages or mailbox size? Is your web e-mail access difficult to use or non-existent? Do you need to synchronize your e-mail, contacts, and calendar to your smartphone? Do you need to be able to view your work e-mail at home?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you should consider implementing Microsoft Exchange in your organization. Exchange is Microsoft’s solution for e-mail, calendaring, and contact management. It is essentially the back-end component to Microsoft Outlook. Exchange is what makes all of Outlook’s functionality work to it’s full capabilities. Exchange can be installed on any Windows domain server, and it is also bundled in Microsoft’s popular Small Business Server product. Combined with business-class Internet service, Microsoft Exchange is a powerful and cost-effective productivity tool.
Managing your messages and your schedule is made worlds easier with Microsoft Outlook and Exchange. You can easily share multiple calendars and contact lists in your organization. Through an interface that looks remarkably like Outlook, you are able to view all of your Outlook data from within Internet Explorer, anywhere in the world. If you have a BlackBerry, iPhone, or Droid smartphone, you can easily synchronize all of your Outlook data onto it (though the BlackBerry requires purchasing additional software). You are able to have unlimited e-mail accounts, and even multiple addresses per account. You can host multiple domains on an Exchange server. It is truly powerful software, and certainly an industry leader for businesses worldwide. Give us a call to discuss how Exchange might for in your organization.
