Does Your Company’s Email Solution Optimize Security and Productivity?
Email has revolutionized the way we communicate, but in some cases it can be a dangerous distraction to productivity. This is especially true if your company is trying to maintain its own Exchange mail server. Does having email on the brain give you a headache? If so, you might consider looking into a hosted email Exchange solution from Directive.
Outsourced Email Hosting Makes Things Easy
The simplest way to handle this responsibility is to have an outsourced IT provider host your mail server for you. We work with Exchange on a daily basis, which means we know how best to manage it. We’re sure you have more pressing matters which demand your attention, and as such, you probably don’t have time to deal with all of the daily struggles of hosting your own Exchange server.
By shifting the responsibility to Directive, you can understand the value of the outsourced IT services we provide. We handle the day-to-day maintenance demanded by complicated computer equipment so you can focus on business as usual. This gives your technology a “hands-off” approach which many business owners appreciate in their IT. You, too, can take advantage of this technology by allowing Directive to host your email for you, augmented with powerful security features.
Enhanced Spam and Security Features Boost Network Security
A successful enterprise-level email solution demands the most powerful security features available. Therefore, comprehensive measures must be taken to guarantee maximum security at all times, similar to how you should approach network security. Email can be a huge distraction, but most of this is caused by the exorbitant amount of spam received on a daily basis. In fact, more than simply a significant portion of incoming messages are considered spam; the majority, more than 60 percent, of all emails are considered spam. Plenty of legitimate emails can get washed down the spam river.
One of the most common ways to catch a virus or malware infection is to download an afflicted attachment from a spam email. What are the odds of this happening? Considering how the majority of email received is spam, there’s a decent chance that a careless employee will accidentally download an attachment. From there, it’s all downhill. Without a comprehensive, enterprise-level spam blocking solution, the chances of malicious emails getting into your inbox are high.
Directive recommends that your business take advantage of our spam-blocking solution in order to prevent a crisis like this. When we host your email, you can take advantage of top-notch security standards to meet the regulations of your particular industry.
