Hosted Exchange - Functions

You can be reached anytime, anywhere. No matter where you are: you can send and receive emails on your computer, over the Internet, or expand your functionalities with an enterprise BlackBerry solution.

Your data are stored in a central mailbox on our Exchange Enterprise environment. All you need is your password to access it, regardless of where you are working from.

What are the benefits of centralised data storage? First of all, you can work from anywhere. But even this solution is redundant. Suppose you regularly save addresses and appointments on your laptop and the device breaks down or is stolen – You lose your data.

But if you are using our Hosted Exchange product, you can simply login to your account from another workplace. In just a matter of seconds, you can gain access to data you thought you had lost.

PC or Mac: the choice is up to you.

Upon request, we will provide with your Hosted Exchange account a licence for using Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007. Mac users can benefit from the same advantages and receive a Microsoft Entourage 2004 or 2008 licence, upon request.

With Outlook Web Access (OWA), you can access our Hosted Exchange environment over the Internet, no matter where you are. OWA provides access not only to your email, but also to your contact persons, day planner and notes.

Given that the data you access through OWA are stored centrally on our Hosted Exchange platform, the data are refreshed automatically. So any email read via OWA will be flagged as “read” the next time you login from your computer to your Hosted Exchange account.

With Outlook Mobile Access (OMA), you can access your Hosted Exchange account via the GPRS or UMTS with a wide range of mobile telephones, PDA and Smartphones. Emails, day planner, tasks, contact persons and notes; all can be accessed.

Just as with Outlook Web Access, data are updated from a central server, so that any action you carry out via OMA is also visible at your regular workplace.

Cyso Managed Hosting offers a comprehensive anti-spam system that keeps your mailbox free of unwanted mail. Every message is tested for spam in a number of ways to ensure that every e-mail in your Hosted Exchange mailbox is one that you actually want to read. More information about our spam filter can be found here.

In addition to spam, we also check inbound e-mail messages for viruses. If a virus is detected in the attachment of an incoming email, the attachment will be removed, and a notification is then sent to the recipient notifying them of the action. The suspicious content is placed in quarantine. In our notification we will provide instructions as to how you can retrieve the quarantined content.

Together, these systems will help to ensure that your mailbox stays clean of harmful content as much as possible.

You are aware that you should be backing up your data on a regular basis. And yet this does not occur nearly enough in practice.

We make daily backups of our Exchange environment. Thus our strict backup process guarantees you will never lose data.

You can sign up with us for a personal efax number. Whenever a fax is sent to this number, it arrives in your mailbox as a PDF file.

POP3 mailboxes are available for users who require email in the domain, but not full Exchange functionalities. These users do not have access to shared information, but can use a POP3 connection to receive and send mail.
