Why should I pick HostCo instead of another provider?

Because we offer the best support in the business.

What are the main differences between WebMail and Hosted Exchange?

HostCo WebMail is a high availability POP/IMAP Email service which includes web-based email client with shared calendars, shared contacts, tasks, and premium spam/virus filtering. SiteMail’s web-based interface is capable of sync with a desktop client like Outlook.

Microsoft Exchange includes the above with the added benefits of:

  • Seamless Outlook integration
  • Secure RPC over HTTPS connections
  • Outlook Web
  • Push service for mobile devices
  • Postini spam/virus filtering
  • Optional Blackberry Enterprise Server integration.
How does migration from my current email provider work?

Contact us at 1-800-513-4678 to discuss your migration needs. We offer a few options to migrate data from your current email solution. We’ll be with you all the way to help troubleshoot and ensure your migration executes seamlessly.

Will my files and email be secure?

Yes, security for our Exchange users is of utmost priority. Data is secured behind the managed firewall and backups are performed regularly. All transmissions between your Outlook and our Exchange servers are transmitted over secure HTTPS connections with the latest SSL encryption techniques. If encryption to external recipients is important to you, we provide Secure Email Encryption as an available feature. Plus, with HostCo's plans you get the spam and virus protection of Google’s Postini.

Can I add Exchange to my Cloud hosting or server account?

Definitely, HostCo offers Exchange accounts a la carte or as an add-on to any of our services.

How long does it take to set up hosted Microsoft Exchange service?

Our solution is 100% turn-key. Start setting up mailboxes immediately after signup.

Can non-Microsoft mobile devices such as Iphone or Android be configured to sync with hosted Exchange?

Yes, Iphone/Ipad and Android devices come with Activesync already installed. It allows you to sync with our Hosted Exchange. By simply typing in a username and password, a user can seamlessly access their Exchange accounts using your mobile device.

For Blackberry users, BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) is available for your BlackBerry phone.

Can I control my Spam/Antivirus settings?

Absolutely! Postini spam and virus scanning system is included with every mailbox at no additional cost and utilizes Google’s patented algorithms to detect and prevent spam. Users will receive a daily report on filtered messages and have control over whitelists and quarantines via a personal management portal.

Is an annual contract required?

No! You'll never have to sign a contract and can cancel at any time—all while saving money by not purchasing your own Exchange server and paying someone separately to maintain it.
