Understanding Microsoft Exchange Server
If you come from the IT/engineering world, you are
likely familiar with Microsoft Exchange Server, the most
popular messaging and collaboration server in the world.
Business users, on the other hand, are more familiar
with Outlook, the e-mail client.
Microsoft Exchange
Server is the engine that powers all those wonderful
e-mail and information-sharing features in Outlook, so
let's take a closer look.
Microsoft Exchange serves two purposes:
- Mail Server. Exchange supports POP, IMAP,
and web
e-mail clients, as well as its own preferred mail
client, Microsoft Outlook.
- Collaboration server. Exchange allows users to share
information, either using Outlook on their desktops or
Outlook Web Access through a web browser. It enables
Outlook's most important features for collaboration -
public folders to which everyone can contribute and view
files, calendars for scheduling meetings or reserving
resources like conference rooms, common address books
for sharing contact information, and much more.

Information sharing capabilities operate through
Exchange centralized storage, the environment on the
remote server that allows access to information at any
time, from anywhere.

Exchange vs. POP
POP3 e-mail systems, whether implemented in-house or
outsourced to a web-hosting company, can only provide
limited solutions for individual users, with no
functionality for sharing information. Exchange gives
you effective communication and collaboration through a
comprehensive, integrated system. By implementing
Exchange, you enhance your communication processes with
collaborative features and give your business an instant
competitive advantage.
Need inexpensive, personal e-mail? Use POP3. Need to
overcome the challenges of business organization and
synchronization? Use Exchange.

The Challenge: Collaboration without Complexity
If you require collaboration - and any organization with
at least a few employees does - Exchange Server with
Outlook client is your best option. Unfortunately, an
in-house installation and maintenance of an Exchange
Server is too costly and complex for small or even
medium companies. Exchange is a server-based application
that requires an Active Directory infrastructure. An
investment of thousands of dollars is required for
hardware, not to mention knowledgeable IT personnel to
support it. Research shows that managing a typical
e-mail system for a 100 person company takes 85% of a
senior technician's time. Due to its advanced features,
Exchange takes more effort to configure and manage,
especially when you require features like Internet
access.
The Solution: Exchange Hosting
Up until a few years ago, small and medium companies had
few options for enabling business messaging for their
organization. Now, with ASP-One Exchange Hosting, any
organization can take advantage of the same tools and
benefits previously reserved for large enterprises. For
a low, fixed and predictable per user monthly fee, you
can reap the benefits of Exchange for comprehensive
messaging and collaboration, in an enterprise-class
infrastructure with guaranteed service levels.
