Managed Exchange

IDS Managed Exchange is an affordable, premium email service that provides you and your staff with the ability to communicate better and work smarter, which can substantially improve the way your business operates. Managed Exchange is based on Microsoft Exchange Server technolgy, which is a sophisticated email messaging solution traditionally used by large companies who possess the resources to install and maintain their own in-house Exchange Server. For many small and medium businesses, however, runnin an Exchange Server themselves is generally not an option because it invloves specialist skills, time and siginificant capital expenditure.

With Managed Exchange, small and medium businesses that have typically relied upon basic POP email can now access this big business technolgy at an affordable monthly pric, to achieve much more from their email system than simply sending and receiving emails. Not only does Managed Exchange have a much lower total cost of ownership (TCO) than managing your own Exchange Server, because all maintenance is taken care of by IDS, it also allows your staff to focus on your core business.

Managed Exchange Email Capabilities:
  • Increased security against viruses and hackers
  • Ability to access your email from any web browser
  • Allows staff to share information securely
  • Off-site back-up of all your valuable email data
  • Access all your folders including Inbox, Sent Items, Calendar and Contacts
  • Access big business technology at an affordable monthly price

With these two primary Managed Business Solutions, small and medium sized business can access the technology and its benefits that large companies utilise without the need for large capital outlay or the dedicated resources that are required. Instead they can focus on their core business and allow IDS to take care of all the management and maintanence associated with these services all for a low monthly fee.
