There’s a new standard for business email

This old standard doesn’t support the way business is done today. To meet users’ basic requirements, businesses these days require 24/7 email uptime, complete mobile freedom, a half-dozen adjacent technologies, and protection against unprecedented levels of threat.

This is why email is moving to the cloud: a cloud email provider can offer far more functionality, reliability and protection than you could affordably deliver on-premises.

But not all clouds are created equal. Office 365 is the best example: while it does address the shortcomings of the old on-premises server and meets the needs of the most cost-sensitive businesses, it doesn’t address the requirements of the New Standard.

We turned to Intermedia [in 2008] to outsource our email. The number-one issue for us is reliability. It’s an absolutely mission-critical tool… and thus far in our relationships, reliability has never been an issue.

Email used to be so simple. A business used to get by with just a few basic email components:

Server In Your Closet

A server in your closet

Server In Your Closet

Basic/free anti-spam and anti-virus

Server In Your Closet

Local disk backup, just in case

This old standard doesn’t support the way business is done today. To meet users’ basic requirements, businesses these days require 24/7 email uptime, complete mobile freedom, a half-dozen adjacent technologies, and protection against unprecedented levels of threat.

This is why email is moving to the cloud: a cloud email provider can offer far more functionality, reliability and protection than you could affordably deliver on-premises.

But not all clouds are created equal. Office 365 is the best example: while it does address the shortcomings of the old on-premises server and meets the needs of the most cost-sensitive businesses, it doesn’t address the requirements of the New Standard.

Here’s what you need to meet The New Standard—and why each element is so important.

$870,000 The average cost to business for email downtime in 2015

THE OLD EXPERIENCE:

sporadic downtime

 

With on-premises email, reliability depended on the capacity of an internal IT team. If an outage happened after business hours, the server was usually offline until IT returned in the morning or after the weekend.

OFFICE 365'S OFFER:

99.9% uptime

 

Office 365 offers a 99.9% uptime guarantee. That could add up to 525 minutes—or over 8 hours—of allowed downtime per year.

THE NEW STANDARD:

99.999% uptime

 

You should accept nothing short of 99.999% uptime. This amounts to less than 6 minutes of unplanned downtime per year. The best providers offer around-the-clock monitoring and redundant ISPs to assure this level of uptime. And they back their promise with a Service Level Agreement.

66% The growth in average Exchange mailbox size since 2011

THE OLD EXPERIENCE:

strict storage quotas

 

With on-premises email, adding storage to the server was very complex. Administrators preferred to impose strict quotas on mailbox size. This often interfered with user work flow, led to the deletion of important data and made many users extremely frustrated. And with the ubiquity of smartphones and other devices, the storage requirements of email will only become greater.

OFFICE 365'S OFFER:

compliant data retention could still be expensive

 

Office 365 retains a user’s data if their mailbox is still active. For regulated businesses, the choice is to keep paying for an ex-employee’s mailbox for 2-7 years after they leave the company or risk fines. And with an average 15% yearly employee turnover, your costs will increase (and compound) significantly over time.

THE NEW STANDARD:

compliant data retention is cost effective

 

Look for a provider that lets you remove user mailboxes while retaining the email archive for as long as you need it. This reduces the cost of storing user data to facilitate compliance.

$75,000 The fine levied by the SEC on a company for not establishing outlined cybersecurity policies before a breach

THE OLD EXPERIENCE:

compliant data retention is expensive

 

Regulations like HIPAA, FINRA and SOX require companies to store data for 2-7 years.7 This creates and imposes significant data storage and maintenance requirements on on-premises deployments.

OFFICE 365'S OFFER:

99.9% uptime

 

Office 365 offers a 99.9% uptime guarantee. That could add up to 525 minutes—or over 8 hours—of allowed downtime per year.

THE NEW STANDARD:

99.999% uptime

 

You should accept nothing short of 99.999% uptime. This amounts to less than 6 minutes of unplanned downtime per year. The best providers offer around-the-clock monitoring and redundant ISPs to assure this level of uptime. And they back their promise with a Service Level Agreement.
