Burlington, Massachusetts - (Website Hosting Directory) - April 13, 2007 - Hosted Microsoft Exchange, Sharepoint and CRM services firm, 123Together.com, is offering Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 on Microsoft’s Validated Solution.

The new offering is designed to allow small and medium sized businesses to receive a Fortune 500 messaging platform more affordably, as a significant upgrade of the industry leading platform for e-mail, mobility and collaboration. Designed to meet all of an organization’s unique messaging needs, Exchange Server 2007 is immediately available and accessible to small and medium businesses through a hosted environment thanks to 123Together.com and its Fortune 500 infrastructure.

123Together.com’s Hosted Exchange 2007 using the Microsoft Solution for Hosted Messaging and Collaboration (HMC) Version 4.0, is the only platform that Microsoft has designed, tested and validated for Exchange Server hosting.

Benefits of 123Together.com’s Exchange Hosting include empowering SMBs to have the same resource as most Fortune 500 companies for three main benefits: 1) anywhere, anytime access to their full Microsoft Outlook data from any computer or mobile device, 2) increase productivity via calendar sharing and collaboration, and 3) peace of mind knowing that experts are maintaining, updating, and securing the system continuously.

Ravi Agarwal, Chief Executive Officer of 123Together.com offered, ‘’We are able to provide the power of Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 to SMBs. Companies that normally could not even consider implementing Exchange Server 2007 in-house can now sign up and start using it immediately - no need to purchase new 64bit servers, retrain administrators or hire consultants. We are also seeing mid-market companies show more interest in outsourcing their messaging and collaboration and having it managed by Exchange experts.'’

Additionally, Microsoft has designed Exchange Server 2007 for large mailbox sizes. Recognizing that many users use their Microsoft Outlook as a virtual filing cabinet and are too busy to clean their mailbox on a regular basis, 123Together.com has increased the maximum mailbox size by 50% to an industry leading 15GB for Exchange Server 2007 hosting.

Implementing Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 in-house for most SMBs does not make sense from both an ROI and an availability perspective. For organizations currently running a previous version of Exchange Server, upgrading to the latest version will typically be very expensive as they must purchase new 64bit hardware and existing Exchange administrators must be retrained due to significant changes in the way Exchange Server is installed and administered.

However, it is after the initial installation that the majority of expenses are incurred in maintaining a mission critical application such as Microsoft Exchange Server. The in-house installation requires spare storage and servers as well as 24×7 proactive monitoring to ensure uptime.

Mr. Agarwal added, ‘’Exchange Server 2007 requires companies to make a large investment of multiple servers and re-training of personnel. It is much less costly and time consuming to outsource your Exchange hosting needs to 123Together.com.'’
