Microsoft Exchange Server – Email Services
Microsoft Exchange combined with Microsoft Outlook is the industry leading email system. It is commonly installed on a company’s own servers in their own offices. However there are many reasons why you may want to consider asking HTL to host Exchange for you.
No need to have your own server
(or the support contract that goes with it)
No worries about power cuts
in your office – our datacentre has got complete back-up with batteries and diesel generators.
Complete Calendar, Contact and Email synchronisation
to your smart phone.
No upfront cost
Just a monthly fee starting at £5 a month per mailbox **.
Access your email from anywhere,
any time! Including compatibility with Blackberry, iPhone and Android.
POP3 or IMAP is old.
If you can't afford your own Exchange Server, then don't think twice. Move to hosted Exchange and release the power of smart phones!

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can you migrate us to Hosted Exchange?
As your existing page mentions, many migrations can be completed very quickly – sometimes within 48 hours – depending on mailbox numbers, current platform and complexity. We’ll assess your environment and give a realistic plan and timeline.
What’s included in the monthly mailbox fee?
The monthly fee covers the hosted Exchange mailbox, access from multiple devices (including smartphones), storage within our hosting environment and management of the underlying servers. Exact inclusions can be confirmed as part of your proposal.
Do we still need an email server in our office?
No. One of the main benefits of Hosted Exchange is that you no longer need to run your own Exchange server or associated hardware in your office, reducing capital and support costs.
How does Hosted Exchange compare with Microsoft 365 / Office 365?
Hosted Exchange focuses on email, calendars and contacts, while Microsoft 365 bundles a broader set of services and licences. We can advise whether Hosted Exchange, Microsoft 365 or a combination is best for your situation.
Where is our email data stored?
Email is hosted in professionally managed data centre facilities with resilient power and connectivity. We’ll explain where the environment is located and how it fits with any data residency and compliance requirements you may have.
