Hosted Exchange Email Services

I'm a big fan of outsourcing IT services like email. We have been using a low cost email provider called 1and1.com for hosting our calendaring, contacts and email. They support Outlook Web Access (OWA) so you can use Outlook, offer web based email access, and are relatively inexpensive.

The problem is that 1and1 is a pretty poor service provider, so I'm looking for a new Exchange Hosting partner to handle our email.

The requirements are:

  • Offers integrated calendaring, email, and contacts (Exchange)
  • Offers a web based client
  • Offers OWA (Outlook Web Access)
  • Offers Blackberry Enterprise Solution to extend the benefits of Microsoft Exchange

I'm looking for recommendations on Exchange Hosting with BES. Please feel free to tell me which service providers you like and which ones to avoid.

Who should we use? And who should we avoid?

I am in the same boat; 1and1 is terrible. Let me know who you find: I am looking for sharepoint, ftp, and exchange services. I am in the slow boat for sure.

We are using ASP-One and it has been pretty reliable. It's much better than 1and1.

Our office uses Intermedia. They're service is great and they offer SharePoint service as well.

I work for a company called Norlight. We offer this service and at very good rates. $12.95 includes Outllok 2007, OWA, and 5GB of storage. (You can get a web only version with 1 GB for $6.95). Best of all, we have personal account reps because we're a local exchange carriers as well. So when you have problems or need help, you always talk to the same person - your personal account manager which in this case would be me. :-)

I've been very happy with gmail for domains. The calendar works well, the email is reliable, the spam filtering is very good as well and the free price is hard to beat.
