Hi All,

I'm in the process of looking at a number of web based email, contact & calendar solutions for our consultants.

Google Apps is one option which I have been playing with, as is the email, contact & calendar functionality that is provided by our domain hosting. These are free/included in price of package.

Another option is using one of the exchange hosting providers to set up say 10 accounts that can be accessed by mail clients and more importantly OWA so we can access email, calendar, contacts & shared docs from a browser.

Does anyone have any experience of any exchange hosting providers? Any to recommend (or PM if any to avoid). We don't really want to get into running SBS or anything like that at this point in time.

Cheers

Alex

it's a pretty niché requirement, as such your choice of providers is going to be very limited.

If you're set against hosting your own solution (cheapest scalable cost/account by far) then you're going to have to accept the need to dig deeper than you might expect, especially given your current hosting plan.

I'm not comfortable enough with any of the known providers to offer any personal reccomendation, so google around, and cross reference with anyone who does give you a reply.

Sorry, not very helpful!
