The oldest commonly used network application is E-mail. Remember CompuServe, which charged by the hour and then was beat out and eventually acquired by AOL, which charged by the month? Then along came Yahoo!, Hotmail, Gmail, and others, many offering decent service at no charge as long as you want to see their ads before your mail. They're great for personal E-mail, but how professional do you look as yourcompany@yahoo-aol-comcast-etc?
Do you need to share contacts, calendars, and to-do lists? Do you need integration with CRM or other applications? How important is keeping old mail for a long time? Should you use the full features of Outlook on your PCs connected to Microsoft Exchange Server or would a competitor like Google Apps or generic mail service do?
You can own and operate your own mail server, or you can let one of countless Internet hosting services do it for you. It can be part of a package like Windows Small Business Server on your own equipment, part of an integrated Internet-based office suite from Microsoft, Google, or Zoho, or it can be a dedicated mail product or service on your own equipment or off in the cloud.
By starting first with an analysis of your needs and wants, we can help you select the right optimization of E-mail features, sharing, access, and cost for your business, and if a change is in order get it running properly, including migrating your old mail into your new system.
