Why Use Microsoft Exchange as a Cloud-Based Server?

One of the recommendations we often make to commercial Office 365 users is to consider migrating their functions and software to Microsoft Exchange. Organizations that use our cloud solutions in Houston have the assurance of the respected Microsoft brand name and can delegate every aspect of the transition to our in-house technicians.

Cloud-based exchange servers are ideal for busy and devolved businesses where team members might be working in the field, remotely, or from different offices or locations. Data, files, email communications, and programs are accessible from anywhere, anytime, providing secure access to every approved user from any device.

Additionally, using Microsoft Exchange as a cloud-based server offers unparalleled reliability and scalability. It can effortlessly handle increasing volumes of data and users without the need for significant hardware upgrades. This scalability ensures that as your business grows, your communication infrastructure can grow with it seamlessly. Moreover, Exchange's built-in security features offer robust protection against cyber threats, ensuring your organization's communications are always secure.

We’ll look at some of the specific support services that may be most relevant. Still, the outcome is that all employees and managers can work on shared documents, contact lists, workflows, and files without downtime, the risk of data losses, or the expense of employing a full-time IT department to manage the administration of an on-premises server.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Our Office 365 Setup and Maintenance Services

The first step is implementing your choice of software and transferring files and data to avoid disrupting your business. We’re well versed in all the applications within Office 365, including:

  • Outlook: The advanced email system that includes information management features and integrates with all other software suites
  • Exchange: The cloud-based mail server and scheduling system that runs exclusively on Windows Server operating systems
  • Teams: A communications platform that functions as a virtual workspace, video conferencing tool and data storage system
  • Office Suites: Comprising the everyday software tools countless businesses use, including PowerPoint, Word, and Excel
  • OneDrive: Microsoft's cloud-based data storage and file hosting service where users share, sync, and archive files
  • SharePoint: A tool used to build websites, share, organize, and access information, and manage other content used in third-party applications

We can advise on the strategic implementation of software updates, team licensing requirements, and the products currently available within the Microsoft Office suite before helping to set up each service. Many businesses may, for example, already use some elements of Office 365 but need support identifying ways to reinforce their security or improving the way colleagues share data or communicate priority tasks.

Our consultants can implement any suitable measures, from customizing your email forwarding rules to adding advanced multi-factor authentication safeguards or reinforcing data protection protocols.
