Posted by Exchange Hosting Reviews as Press Releases, USA.net

Industry’s Most Cost-Effective Hosted Email Solution Built on Proven and Feature Rich Technology

Milford, CT, June 29, 2009 – USA.NET, a subsidiary of Perimeter, the leading provider of integrated messaging and collaboration services, today announced the availability of an enhanced version of its Commercial Messaging Service (CMS) 2.0, a lower cost webmail alternative to other business email solutions such as Microsoft Exchange, GroupWise and LotusNotes offerings.

“CMS 2.0 is a feature rich hosted messaging solution bundled with the best-in-class anti-virus and spam protection, as well as mobility, in one simple hosted package that includes the same attributes as other hosted email solutions on the market at a notably lower price. It’s a rock solid solution that has served hundreds of thousands of customers since it’s inception in 1996,” said Doug Howard, President of USA.NET and Chief Strategy Officer at Perimeter. “And CMS 2.0 can be branded to enforce the consistency with your company’s look and feel, offering the perfect way to build customer and employee loyalty through brand reinforcement. We have several affinity groups, non-profits, franchises and carriers that utilize the service today as part of their continued brand building efforts with their customers and members.”

The hosted email solution comes in two different packages, CMS Web, and CMS Enterprise, that both allow users to access emails from any Web browser with an Internet connection, any desktop email clients including Outlook, Outlook Express, and Entourage, as well as from most wireless devices. Both solutions also allow a high degree of application programming interface integration with customer business applications such as Customer Relationship Management platforms, databases, alerting, among many others.

CMS Web includes multi-layered virus and spam protection, an address book with Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) access, auto-responders, scheduled message delivery, flexible mail delivery, administration features and other services. Users can also view their emails from their mobile devices through either a Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) webpage designed for CMS, or via POP or IMAP access.

CMS Enterprise includes all the capabilities of the CMS Web solution, with additional features such as wireless and two-way outlook synchronization, calendaring, tasks, notes, web-based reporting and flexible storage allocation capabilities. Add-on features such as encrypted email, content filtering and Instant Messaging, are also available in the CMS Enterprise package.

“In this challenging economy, businesses and affinity groups that rely on email messaging for their business communications need to have access to a full-featured email hosting program that is dependable, feature rich and cost-effective, and that’s exactly what we’re providing. In addition, customers demand high quality 24×7 professional customer service that’s only an email or call away, a clear differentiator for us in this marketplace,” added Howard.

LiveOffice and Mimosa Forge First Partnership to Provide Integrated On-Premise and Cloud-Based Email Archive

Posted by Exchange Hosting Reviews as LiveOffice, Press Releases

Industry Leaders Deliver Predictable Storage Costs and Expedited eDiscovery
TORRANCE, Calif., June 23, 2009 — LiveOffice, the leading provider of software-as-a-service (SaaS), email hosting, email archiving and email continuity solutions, today announced beta availability of LiveOffice CloudMerge for Mimosa NearPointTM, a software application that seamlessly connects Mimosa’s on-premise archive to LiveOffice’s cloud-based archive. The joint offering leverages the best of both infrastructures to deliver cost-effective, long-term storage and expedited external eDiscovery for on-premise Microsoft Exchange Server environments.

“We have been a longtime client of the Mimosa NearPoint solution. Until now, we have used Mimosa’s archiving solution to cull emails for discovery and then exported those messages to physical media for our citizens to review for FOIA requests,” said Santhosh Samuel of Palm Beach County, Florida. “With LiveOffice CloudMerge for Mimosa NearPoint, we are able to give cloud-based review to our attorneys, partners and citizens in a ‘neutral’ environment, while reducing the cost and time involved in processing eDiscovery and FOIA requests.”

“Organizations should not be deciding whether or not to archive email – they should be determining how,” said Brian Babineau, senior analyst with Enterprise Strategy Group. “Previously, customers had to choose between an on-premise or software-as-a-service implementation model. Mimosa and LiveOffice’s partnership makes the ‘how’ decision much easier, enabling organizations to experience the best of both worlds by supplementing long-term storage and offline access with a cost-effective cloud option that translates into predictable, fixed storage costs and more efficient eDiscovery review. This hybrid approach delivers tremendous value to organizations faced with uncertain storage costs and complex eDiscovery and FOIA requests.”

Available today, the beta version of LiveOffice CloudMerge for Mimosa NearPoint delivers two key benefits to joint customers:

Unlimited Tiered Storage Option (UTSO): With UTSO, enterprises can implement a tiered storage archive, where recent data is kept in local storage with NearPoint, while older content is moved to LiveOffice using the CloudMerge tool and stored at a low, fixed monthly price. Moving data transparently to the cloud means content, regardless of size, can be stored infinitely with no ongoing management required. With this model, storage costs remain fixed, providing IT managers, CIOs and CFOs with the added benefit of expense predictability.
Expedite External eDiscovery Review: The solution can be configured to seamlessly push select, on-premise content to LiveOffice to support eDiscovery and Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests. This transparent movement of data via the LiveOffice CloudMerge tool provides a secure “neutral” zone where custodians, legal counsel, case assessment managers, citizens and partners can easily review messages online, eliminating the need for manual processing and export to physical media. CloudMerge for NearPoint enables enterprises to fully satisfy legal and operational demands, resulting in greater compliance and organizational efficiencies.
CloudMerge for Mimosa NearPoint provides companies with the ultimate flexibility by satisfying both short and long-term retention policies and helping to ease the data storage debate within organizations. Mimosa clients benefit from the ability to easily send as much or as little of their archived data as they like to the cloud. In addition, it eases the burden on internal IT resources by providing network administrators with a way to make permitted data easily accessible to end users or external third parties. The CloudMerge application also means that LiveOffice clients can benefit from meeting granular, folder-based retention policies that require storing certain data on-premise, while still achieving cost efficiencies by storing some data in the cloud. Plus, the Mimosa NearPoint solution enables LiveOffice users to perform more forensic searches of their on-premise Exchange Server.

Pricing & Availability
The beta version of LiveOffice CloudMerge for Mimosa NearPoint is available beginning today. Please contact LiveOffice or Mimosa Systems for pricing information.

Herndon, VA – June 23, 2009– Apptix (OSE: APP), the industry-leading provider of hosted Microsoft Exchange email, Microsoft SharePoint collaboration services, and hosted VoIP phone service for small and medium businesses (SMBs), announced today that it has expanded the anywhere access capabilities of its Exchange email hosting service with the launch of Voice Access for Microsoft Office Outlook 2007. This new service enables Apptix hosted Exchange Server 2007 customers to remotely access and interact with their email, calendar, contacts, or voicemail via any phone—land line or mobile—simply by using touchtone or voice commands.
“From email and attached documents to calendar and contact information, Outlook has become a central repository for employees’ critical information,” said Rick Rumbarger, Vice President of Product for Apptix. “Apptix Outlook Voice Access keeps busy, on-the-go employees—whether in a car or walking across their company’s campus—in touch with their customers, colleagues, and critical information.”
Apptix Exchange Email hosting service with Outlook Voice Access provides a universal inbox for email messages, calendar appointments, contact data, and voicemail. Users experience a complete Outlook 2007 or Entourage 2008 experience while remotely interacting with this inbox using any phone. Guided by a series of voice prompts, users navigate and provide direction using touchtone or automatic speech recognition (ASR) voice commands. Items are read aloud to users by the Exchange server’s text-to-speech capability. As a result, users are able to:
Retrieve, listen to, reply to, create, flag, and forward voicemail or email messages
Listen to, create, or change calendar information
Manage contacts to send an email or voicemail message to another user
Apptix customers, regardless of location, can now access their Outlook calendars via a mobile phone or landline. Using voice prompts, they can reschedule or alert other participants that a meeting is delayed or that its scheduled time has changed. Users can also reply to emails—by attaching a voicemail message—to a distribution list in their Outlook Contact list. To view a demonstration of Apptix Outlook Voice Access, please visit www.apptix.com/outlook-voice-access and click on the green demo button.
Anywhere Access
The addition of Outlook Voice Access expands the options Apptix customers have to access and manage their Exchange inbox.

Users will have a consistent Outlook experience from desktop to mobile device.
Voice Access is available for a limited time at a special 50% launch discount price of $2.48 per month per seat with an existing hosted Exchange server subscription. For more information, please visit www.apptix.com.

LiveOffice Launches First Email Archiving Plugin to Spiceworks Community

Posted by Exchange Hosting Reviews as LiveOffice, Press Releases

Plugin Provides Free Cloud-based Email Archiving with Unlimited Storage
TORRANCE, Calif., June 22, 2009 — LiveOffice, the leading provider of software-as-a-service (SaaS), email hosting, email archiving and email continuity solutions, today announced the availability of its LiveOffice Mail Archive plugin for Spiceworks’s community of more than 700,000 information technology (IT) professionals. While Spiceworks is the first to provide the IT industry with free network management software, LiveOffice is the first to provide its community members with a free plugin for email archiving. This application helps users better manage their messaging environments and eliminates the need for mailbox quotas and PST file storage, while also ensuring that email is always accessible and available with a built-in continuity feature.

“LiveOffice automates the email archiving setup and implementation process, which is traditionally an enormous operational burden for customers wanting to save messages for extended periods of time,” said Brian Babineau, senior analyst for Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG). “They’ve put an easy-to-use, turnkey archiving solution at the fingertips of IT professionals worldwide, providing a variety of organizations with the opportunity to experience the benefits of email archiving firsthand without any sort of long-term commitment.”

How It Works
With a simple, five-click installation process, LiveOffice Mail Archive plugin users are up and archiving in hours, rather than weeks or months—without ever speaking to a customer service agent. Once installation of the plugin is complete, your network administrator enables journaling on the Microsoft Exchange Server to begin archiving messages and attachments. In addition to the monitoring capabilities provided by Spiceworks, the plugin adds a visual representation of what’s taking place in your email archive through the use of a dynamic pie chart. It displays the total size of your archive, the total number of emails archived and an individual breakdown of archive consumption per user. End users also have the option to deploy a fully integrated web folder that resides in their existing Microsoft Outlook client and enables them to instantly search and restore old emails and attachments stored in the archive. Plus, users with administrative rights have the ability to create policy alerts based on specific keywords, monitor phrase violations and tag emails for further review and/or investigation.

“We’re thrilled to have the LiveOffice Mail Archive plugin available to the 700,000 Spiceworks small business IT pros,” said Scott Abel, co-founder and CEO of Spiceworks. “It’s a great way to help them tap into the power of archiving, storage and continuity services in the cloud – all from within their daily workflow in Spiceworks.”

Pricing & Availability
The LiveOffice Mail Archive plugin is available through Spiceworks at no charge for the first five users. Organizations looking to archive more than five users can contact LiveOffice directly for more information and pricing.

Apps4Rent’s Hosted Exchange Allows POP3 And Exchange Mailboxes To Coexist

Posted by Exchange Hosting Reviews as Apps4Rent, Press Releases

Apps4Rent, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner and BlackBerry Alliance member, has upgraded its hosted Exchange solution to allow company email accounts on the same domain to be split between Exchange hosting and inexpensive POP3 e-mail hosting. Apps4Rent’s split-domain solution along with their free migration assistance and zero setup costs lower the bar for adoption of Microsoft Exchange Server 2007.

“Companies are cautious about moving all their users to hosted Exchange for costs and continuity reasons,” said Wade Dube, Manager for Apps4Rent. “While there is a significant benefit in having all users to the Exchange hosting platform, some companies may find it cost effective to move only their power users, while continuing to keep the rest on inexpensive POP3 e-mail accounts.”

Exchange hosting plans (http://www.apps4rent.com/hostedexchange.htm) start at $6.95 per mailbox that includes 1GB space, free ActiveSync and Outlook 2007. BlackBerry(R) synchronization (http://www.apps4rent.com/exchange-mobility.html) can be added for $9.95 per month. There is no setup fee for Apps4Rent’s Exchange hosting, BlackBerry(R), SharePoint or Hyper-V hosting plans.

Apps4Rent.com’s hosted Exchange service with the option to add BlackBerry(R) offers businesses greater functionality, and improved stability including access to the latest Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 features such as easy to use interface for Outlook Web Access, mobile synchronization of emails, contacts, calendars, tasks, and public folders, support for large mailboxes, fast performance on 64bit servers, clustered server architecture for load balancing and 99.99% high availability, instant message searching capabilities and more.

Companies can capitalize on Apps4Rent.com’s hosted Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 without making initial and ongoing investments in technology or personnel. Along with full Microsoft Exchange 2007 access, customers receive an easy to use web-based administration interface, 24×7 x365 phone, e-mail and chat support, and full support for BlackBerry(R) Enterprise Server, Windows Mobile phones, Apple’s iPhone or smart phones that uses ActiveSync technology.

New Virtual Private Server Hosting for SMBs Delivers Advantages of Dedicated Server at Lower Cost

Posted by Exchange Hosting Reviews as ExchangeMyMail, Press Releases

– Benefits of Exchange My Mail Service Trumps High Fees and Management Headaches of Dedicated Server Scenarios
Albertson, NY – June 15th, 2009 –
Exchange My Mail®, a full service provider of customized web-based productivity solutions for small-to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and web hosts, today launched its Windows Virtual Private Server (VPS) service, which delivers the advantages of a dedicated server without the hassle and expense of managing a dedicated server in-house. SMBs and web hosts frequently have to pay vendors for space on multiple servers, and lack the flexibility to change plans based on their evolving needs. Exchange My Mail’s VPS solution offers the security, control and functionality of a dedicated server, but with the affordable pricing, simplicity and manageability of a traditional shared hosting account.
Exchange My Mail’s VPS service employs Parallels’ Virtuozzo Containers, a leading Operating System (OS) virtualization solution that creates isolated containers on a single physical server and OS instance. Rather than virtualize a complete set of hardware, Parallels containers virtualizes at the OS level. Virtuozzo runs all virtual environments on top of a single OS kernel, which is multiplexed to look like multiple Operating Systems. This configuration is ideal for hosting environments, and reduces stress on the OS, allowing customers to use more allocated resources for web sites and applications. Parallels is a global leader in virtualization and automation software.
All Exchange My Mail VPS plans offer 99.99% uptime, off-server backup, a dedicated IP address, unlimited DNS hosting and firewall protection. Plans also include full administrator access and a powerful, easy to use Parallels Plesk panel for remote management. This allows customers to use their space as they wish, while ensuring that their server is totally isolated from other users. Plans start as low as $39.99 monthly, and are superior to dedicated server solutions in terms of cost, reliability, manageability, “burstability” and flexibility:
* Cost: All the functionality of a dedicated server at a fraction of the cost.
* Reliability: Bundled nightly backups ensure data remains safe.
* Manageability: Tools help users easily add applications or change and upgrade service instantly.
* Burstability: Get the resources you need right when you need them.
* Flexibility: Instantly increase your service plan to use more resources as you grow, and easily migrate to a more powerful server if necessary.
Virtual Private Server services are superior to shared hosting due to:
* Control: With administrative or root access, you can easily modify server configuration files, install applications or modify system software.
* Security: Your file system is not accessible or viewable by others.
* Isolation: You are fully isolated from other users and actions on the server.
* Performance: Resource availability and performance is guaranteed.
Name organizations such as Goodwill Industries International, The Weekly Standard, Marc Roberts Companies, Zayo Group, Community First Bank, Marjam Supply Company and the Iowa City Heart Center, P.C., have helped Exchange My Mail establish itself as a leading provider of web-based productivity solutions. ”Exchange My Mail has done a great job of developing cost-effective email and productivity solutions for us for years,” says Ken Ratner, Senior Managing Director, Marc Roberts Companies. “Because they’ve been so reliable, hands on and responsive, we definitely plan to take advantage of their VPS services.”
“What’s unique and particularly helpful about our VPS offering is that a customer can upgrade to a plan with more power, RAM or disc space with a click of a mouse,” said David Grantz, CIO for Exchange My Mail. “We make it cost-effective and simple for SMBs to start and monitor their VPS plan, and make adjustments on the fly as their needs change.”
Exchange My Mail solutions are backed by a 30 day money back and 100% satisfaction guarantee. We operate out of a secure, state-of-the-art Tier3 Data Center and Network Operation Center (NOC) that is fully N+1 redundant. Our Data Center has achieved SAS 70 Type II compliance and rigorously adheres to HIPAA and Sarbanes-Oxley requirements for the IT infrastructure of our customers.
