Frequently Asked Questions
 |
What is Hosted Exchange?
Hosted Exchange is an outsourced email service fully-managed by a Hosted Exchange provider (as opposed to purchasing, installing and maintaining an in-house mail server). Hosted Exchange provides rich collaboration for Microsoft Outlook with company-wide shared contacts, calendars and synchronized support for BlackBerry and other mobile devices. Outlook Web Access (OWA) provides an Outlook-like web interface accessible via any web browser.
Why use Global Relay's Message Archiver with Hosted Exchange?
The combination offers the best of all messaging worlds. Outsourcing via Global Relay's Message Archiver with Hosted Exchange is a deluxe messaging solution that is professionally-managed and secure, with no upfront costs. Combined benefits include:
- Compliance: the Message Archiver enables Exchange customers to meet compliance requirements and litigation eDiscovery demands
- Rapid Search: powered by true search engine technology, searching for specific email over large volumes takes only seconds using the Message Archiver
- Business Continuity: by uniting Hosted Exchange with Global Relay's mirrored East/West Coast Data Centers, bulletproof backup redundancy is deployed for business continuity & disaster recovery
- Unification: All Exchange email is consolidated in the Message Archiver with other electronic communication such as IM, Bloomberg, Reuters and legacy data
- Migration Ease: migrating to Hosted Exchange can be simplified and made more affordable by importing legacy data directly to Global Relay's Message Archiver
- Eliminate Overages: Exchange storage overages can be better managed overtime by leveraging the Message Archiver - users can safely delete messages from their Inbox knowing that they have instant web access to a permanent copy via the online Message Archiver
How does Hosted Exchange Archiving work?
Once your mailboxes are activated with the Hosted Exchange provider, Envelope Journaling is enabled to forward all incoming, internal & outgoing email to Global Relay's Message Archiver. The Message Archiver captures all Hosted Exchange email, BlackBerry, GoodLink, LCS, and consolidates it with all other email & instant messaging services Global Relay may provide. Active Directory is synchronized for Exchange Users to be automatically populated in the Message Archiver.
What is involved in Getting Started?
Hosted Exchange and Hosted Exchange Archiving are "hosted", professionally managed services. There are no upfront capital investments, and overhead costs related to in-house Exchange expertise and storage management are eliminated. Once you sign up for Global Relay's Message Archiver and indicate your Hosted Exchange provider in the online signup information, we will work with your provider of choice to enable journaling very quickly.
