London, United Kingdom - (Website Hosting Directory) - December 23, 2008 - The Hosted Exchange solution is being offered at a fraction of the cost, at ThinkGrid, to benefit small and medium-sized businesses specifically, for IT services, with its new ThinkExchange service.
Designed to give SMBs access to the latest version of Microsoft's market leading messaging solution, ThinkExchange provides all the features of Exchange 2007 but removes the pain of set-up, configuration and, most significantly, the need for upfront, capital expenditure.
Hosting companies looking to offer a messaging solution for their customers can also use ThinkExchange as a white-labelled, value-added service. ThinkExchange comes at half the cost of similar services offered by rival companies, giving start-ups and SMBs the opportunity to stay competitive by enjoying the benefits that larger businesses gain in keeping up-to-date with the latest technology.
ThinkExchange does not require SMBs to dedicate time and resources to maintaining, deploying and supporting an in-house solution. With ThinkExchange, businesses not only get the latest features of Microsoft Exchange 2007, such as shared calendars and contacts, but also Microsoft Outlook 2007, 1GB Mailboxes, anti-spam, anti-virus and back-up protection, mobile email and Outlook web access. Businesses can increase or decrease the number of users required, and the service is purchased with one simple monthly contract, giving greater control and flexibility in managing the cost of email.
ThinkExchange comes with ThinkGrid's expert 24x7 support, giving customers their own personalised UK-based support teams, ensuring continuity and ultra-fast resolution of issues. As well as offering a service to small and medium-sized businesses, ThinkGrid has also allowed for white-labelling; allowing channel partners, hosting companies and services businesses to deliver a fully branded hosted Exchange 2007 offering to add to their existing revenue streams. Partners have the full capacity to build their own plans, provision and bill their customers.
David Pratt, COO of ThinkGrid noted, ''Faced with bank freezes on lending, tightening of purse strings and the need to maintain quality, in the current economic climate every penny really does count. ThinkExchange removes the cost and management burden of one of the most critical applications supporting UK businesses today. We're offering a market leading email solution not only at a fraction of the cost, but with an approach that ensures other critical parts of the business need not suffer.''
