At a recent survey done online, 90% of all business communication all over the world is now done through email. But here comes the dilemma; with so many to choose from, which ones do you go for and what are the aspects that you should look out for? Firstly, for those who are contemplating hosting email in house; it can be quite an expensive solution because the amount of equipment and customisation of the office space that you have to do is quite staggering. For one, you need to bring in additional equipment like servers, high memory capacity drives and an additional computer.
You would also need to change to a high speed modem and install expensive firewall and security software to that the internal office email network does not get attacked by viruses. These include anti adware software, spam blockers and corporate level anti virus software. If you are a large corporation, then the cost might be negligible, but if your operations range from the small to the medium, then you need to consider the alternative, which is to adopt an email hosting service from a provider who has already all the necessary equipments and software in place. Looking at the arena of email hosting on the web; there are several aspects you should look out for. For one, the provider should be able to furnish your business with an almost unlimited number of email names, email addresses that are 100% customisable.
The features that they should provide include security features like spam blocking software, a reliable firewall and a host of options for you to secure your precious corporate information. There should also be a 24 technical support division that can attend to your case, and the best thing would be to have a technician that can even come onsite if the problem is dire (Of course this only works when the email provider is in the same country as you are, and most likely, this will be the case). They should also be able to provide you with something called off site back ups, which is a web mail options which copies and archives all the emails running through the server, which means in the event of a global crash of all systems, there will be a backup storage for you to refer to. With these features, you can get the right email hosting for your business.
