Shared Hosting vs. Dedicated Hosting

Shared Exchange Server Hosting

A shared server is very popular with smaller companies that are just starting out, or want to move only a small portion of their company’s email to an online solution. On a shared server, a number of different companies store their data on one server – sharing this one resource among all of them. Therefore, this is a very cost effective solution for companies that need the benefits of a big business email solution but may only need a few mailboxes and have a limited budget. The small, monthly, per user fee ensures that you pay for only the specific number of mailboxes you need, and, since it is a subscription service, there are no contracts or commitments to sign for less than 100 mailboxes.

Benefits:

• Excellent performance at a cost effective price
• Pay for only the mailboxes you need
• Add, delete and manage users with no technical expertise or involvement
• Same level of data security as a dedicated server

Dedicated Exchange Server Hosting

A dedicated server is just that – it is a server which stores the data from your company only. No other company’s data will be housed on your server. It may be your preferred solution if you have a larger company and determine that you will be able to utilize most or all of the space available on the server. A dedicated server will also enable your technical staff to implement more granular controls over user access and individual mailbox limits.

Benefits:

• Additional flexibility for larger companies with a more extensive budget
• Enhanced hosting capacity (larger mailboxes)
• Ample space capacity
• Full scalability to quickly and easily add users
