Comparison Between Email Exchange Hosting Providers

There are a number of email exchange hosting options available in the market today. They have a number of similarities and differences that are associated with service offerings. One of the most notable differences of email exchange hosting providers is the platform they offer.

Also, some of the companies are marketing their services more strongly than others, and bigger customers can also get bulk discounts on advertised price. Bigger providers are 1and1.com, USA.net, Mi8.com, asp-one.com... However, despite this fact that big hosting companies have more resources, some younger exchange providers are driving agressive marketing campaigns and are specialized in email exchange hosting. They usually offer faster response time and better support departments. Some of them are Intermedia, Sherweb, Appriver and 123Together...

This comparison of email exchange hosting providers is based on two exchange server versions, they offer. We are talking about MS Exchange 2003 and Microsoft Exchange 2007. The main differences between these two come with the design and the workload they can sustain. Below are some of the main differences and similarities of the above mentioned exchange versions.

When it comes to email exchange hosting offered on the platform of exchange 2007, you find that searching capability was greatly enhanced in comparison to exchange 2003, especially by the introduction of outlook 2007 on the client side.

This made exchange 2007 platform even more popular amongst those using the older version (which is not always the case, as many new versions do not bring much new to the table, especially if looking thru eyes of the business, where all new expenses must be justified), so the change to 2007 was mostly done because of the search which was made faster and usable. With this in mind, you will realize that the exchange 2007 server is also much faster. It gives you stability and performance, not seen in the exchange 2003 platform. Operation is faster an if an error occurs, hosting company will know what to do.

One benefit of using the exchange 2007 version is that it can carry out its searches even to the attachments while the 2003 can not do that. With this in mind, we can conclude that the 2007 version is best, when comparing fastness and reliability in the search.

The Exchange 2007 version used for email exchange hosting also has a superior spam filtering, while the 2003 exchange platforms rely on third party programs for this feature. You can use the 2007 exchange version to lower the number of received spam messages. Despite this fact this version does not totally remove all the things received as spam and you have to wade through them, or upgrade spam protection to specialized programs, like Clourmark's. The Exchange 2007 has however come up with a new design, that will ease quick scanning of inbox, meaning more work done using less time.

When it comes to storage space, you will find out that the 2007 email exchange hosting providers often offer bigger storage space compared to the older exchange hosting providers. There are some companies that do not allow storing many emails because most of these exchange stores allows email storage for roughly 2GB while the 2007 users have an allowance of 5 GB free of charge and if you want any addition, you can choose among various packets (depending on provider) per gigabyte, or in bigger chunks of 25GBs (for as low as $50 per year).
