Exchange Online

Posted by Cindy on October 16, 2016 in Computer, Microsoft |

Exchange Online is a great option for small business email. Using email addresses with your domain name gives your business a more professional image rather than using a gmail or yahoo address. Exchange Online provides a stable, worry-free platform which allows a small business owner to focus on his/her business rather than email issues. The spam protection included with Exchange Online is one of the best in the industry, saving you time by keeping those spam emails out of your inbox. Contact me if you are interested in switching to Exchange Online.

Google is trying to change that and is encouraging other email providers to add encryption capabilities to their email service. You can read more about Google’s efforts here.
