There are certain risks your company must deal with if you host your email network in your physical office on an exchange server. If your office building is physically damaged from fire, leaking pipes or other natural disaster, or if your onsite server is accessed by unauthorized personal your business could suffer serious ramifications. Additionally, your company must upgrade the software and hardware at  your own expense.

If you are worried about the safety and security of your commercial email account, you may want to consider hosting business email on a cloud platform.  When you use cloud-based hosted email many of the problems associated with an onsite server disappear. All of your company’s servers, licenses, and system updates are maintained by the hosting company.  As a result, your system will be far more secure.   

Your company E-mail will be synched across all devices (desktop, laptop, IPad, IPhone, Droid Phone, Blackberry).  This means sent items and subfolders will carry across all devices, and once an email is read or deleted on one device, it will be read or deleted on the others. This makes time and email management much easier, while making your employees more productive.   This synchronization also goes for all calendars and contacts.

Cloud computing allows you to host email and other digital services in another, central location that is accessed via the internet. This eliminates the need for onsite servers.  In fact, many companies now use cloud technology. It is usually cheaper, your company merely pays a monthly hosting fee, it is more scalable; and it is easier to upgrade to the latest technology.

With hosted email in the cloud you will have access to business class webmail synced across all devices.  Also, you will no longer have to worry about E-mail back-ups with a cloud-based system.  Sudbury Computer will perform this task automatically.
