Microsoft Exchange Server

Heya, guys! I'd like to know, does BODhost have Microsoft Exchange servers? I don't see anything like that in the product page, so maybe not. I guess we'll have to buy our licenses from Microsoft if we want MS Exchange, eh? But if we do, do you even allow MS Exchange servers here?

Thanks!

Yep, BODhost does offer Microsoft Exchange servers. At least, that's what I could find in their knowledgebase. If you're looking to get an Exchange server or simply want to know more about the details of getting one, your best bet is probably to contact BODhost sales.

Nice find, iamsam! I didn't even know BODhost offered Microsoft Exchange servers at all. Well, at least I know who to go to in case I need MS Exchange.

Yea, having that option is useful.

What are the core benefits of microsoft exchange server? One more thing confusing me is that, what is the difference between local exchange server and hosted exchange server?

Microsoft Exchange Server actually provides you with the Email features you will never get with a hosting package or server. It enables you to get and provide Email functionality to your organization. As Emails are being very important for the organizations, it also includes features which ensures security from hackers, vulnerable attacks, viruses etc.

The difference between local Exchange server and hosted Exchange server is somewhat the same as self hosting i.e. hosting websites on local server and hosting websites on a server with a professional hosting provider.

If you have a hosted Exchange server with a reliable hosting provider, he will take care of the network, maintenance, security etc. and the overall cost will be less than the local Exchange server. Whereas, if you consider a local Exchange server, the solution will not be reliable enough and the overall cost of the Exchange server will be much more :(

Just a quick question that popped into my head, but do you offer any custom plans that might be needed for those with small businesses? I notice sometimes hosting places only have large bulk rates.

We aren't doing any custom plans for now. Could you list your requirements though ?
