123Together.com First To Make Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Hosted Edition Available To Small And Mid-Size Businesses

WALTHAM, Mass., Nov. 1, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- 123Together.com – a mindSHIFT Technologies company with 10 years' experience in delivering business class email solutions – announced today that it is the first provider of Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Hosted Edition.  This most recent release of Microsoft's Exchange Server technology is specifically designed with a multi-tenant architecture to enable hosting providers to offer enterprise-class messaging to multiple organizations on a shared server.  It is the only version of Exchange Server 2010 to be fully supported by Microsoft as a web-based email service.  

"Our goal is to provide the most advanced and cost effective messaging solutions to small and mid-size organizations," said William Flynn, 123Together.com general manager.  "The enterprise version of Exchange Server 2010, which has been offered by some providers in a hosted environment, is not supported by Microsoft and, due to the high value we and our customers place on reliable service, we chose to wait until this fully supported version was available before we would offer it to customers.  Organizations eager to adopt Exchange 2010 as a hosted service can now have peace of mind – knowing that both 123Together.com and Microsoft stand behind this secure, stable and reliable web-based email solution."

This Fortune-500 class hosted email service enables small and mid-size organizations to benefit from a leading business tool at an affordable price.
