Exchange Migration
In today’s competitive marketplace, IT departments are under more pressure than ever before. To maintain increasingly complex systems and infrastructures with static or shrinking budgets, the IT department must do more with less. In an effort to drive out costs, many businesses have implemented emerging technologies, such as virtualization, to help streamline and simplify the management of their IT resources.
Such solutions do indeed offer the potential for cost reductions, but only at the expense of a radical and complex overhaul of the infrastructure. This makes it somewhat surprising that only relatively few businesses have so far identified a much easier and less painful method of reducing their IT expenditure: namely, replacing their email system with a less costly and more manageable solution.
IMail Server: a better alternative to Exchange
Ipswitch IMail Server Premium is a fully-featured easy to use standards-based email server system. IMail Server supports SMTP, POP3, IMAP, LDAP and provides workgroup collaboration, encrypted instant messaging, shared calendaring, multi-language Web-based email, a global address book and protection from viruses and spam. Everything you would expect to be found in an enterprise-class messaging system can be found in IMail Server.
IMail Server Premium provides a solution to costs and complexities associated with deploying and managing Exchange Server 2007:
- Hardware Support - a business does not need to replace its servers to be able to run the very latest version of IMail Server. IMail Server can be installed on any x86 or x64 server with 512 MB or more of RAM enabling businesses to continue to leverage their existing hardware investments.
- Licensing costs - to purchase Exchange Server 2007 Standard Edition with Forefront Security for 100 users for a 3 year period would cost approximately $14,899. To purchase IMail Server Premium with security from BitDefender® for 100 users for a 3 year period would cost approximately $5,970.
Add more users into the equation, and the savings achievable with IMail become even more substantial.
