Reliable Microsoft Dedicated Exchange Environment
Most medium and large businesses need advanced business email functionality to achieve greater security, availability, and flexibility from their messaging environment, which a Microsoft Dedicated Exchange server can provide. However, running an Exchange server in-house involves too much cost and time-consuming management.
NaviSite offers Dedicated Hosted Exchange solutions that give you a dedicated, fully managed Exchange environment without having to pay for a fully dedicated infrastructure. Our Dedicated Exchange solutions offer dedicated backend mailbox servers along with access to other shared servers like mobile messaging and SharePoint, giving you cost savings and the peace of mind of knowing that your data is separated from other companies’ data.
The Dedicated Exchange solution is ideal for companies requiring 500-1000 seats, and can easily scale with your needs in terms of additional servers, storage, or features. As a trusted Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, NaviSite has the expertise to design, deliver, implement, and support messaging and communications solutions, leveraging the latest Exchange functionalities that enable information sharing and improve the quality of your communication.
Choosing NaviSite as your trusted Microsoft Dedicated Exchange provider offers a number of significant benefits over hosting your Exchange Server in-house.
