Host Europe Launches ‘Hexagon’ to Make Mobile Working a Reality for All Businesses |
 |
A solution to suit IT budgets of all sizes
Host Europe, the pan European web hosting provider, today announces the launch of Hexagon Hosted Exchange which offers businesses of all sizes the ability to remotely manage Email at anytime using web enabled mobile devices. Hexagon combines the security of Host Europe’s own data centres with the stability of Microsoft Exchange and Windows Server 2003, to offer non office based staff a reliable and flexible outsourced Email service. Hexagon is available in a range of feature rich and cost effective packages that suit all sizes of business, from as little as £22 per month.
Hexagon offers businesses the option of outsourcing their entire Email management system. Not only does this allow internal IT staff to focus on core business activities but it provides businesses with access to the latest technology without expensive and time-consuming in-house upgrades. Service level guarantees and 24 hour technical support also ensure that this vital communication tool is always there when needed.
Abby Hardoon, Chief Executive Officer of Host Europe: “Hexagon is the perfect solution for those companies that rely heavily on Email and whose staff spend time out of the office. It allows staff to work more effectively and productively all of the time, wherever they are.”
Host Europe offers the Hexagon service through its own wholly owned data centres. As one of Europe’s largest providers of hosting solutions, it has the necessary IT infrastructure and technical support to offer businesses a completely secure and reliable service. Hexagon is built upon the strengths of Host Europe’s hosting ability that has seen it become the hosting partner of choice for companies including British Heart Foundation and Interflora.
Setting up and managing Hexagon on a day-to-day basis is easy. A user friendly web based control panel system, which can be branded in any corporate style, allows even the most non technical of staff to quickly create new mailboxes and organise their Email. New Email accounts can be created almost immediately, giving businesses and employees the flexibility of being up and running in less than an hour.
Users are able to make full use of Microsoft Outlook’s features, such as shared calendar, reminders, task list and public folders, from anywhere and at any time, using PCs, PDAs, WAP phones and other mobile devices. Hexagon does not require a Local Area Network (LAN) and can be optimised to work efficiently with slower internet connections. This provides individuals and smaller businesses with the same level of flexibility and control over their remote working systems as large corporations - but without the costly IT infrastructure or technical support.
Abby continues: “Businesses talk about supporting remote and flexible working but few companies actually do it. This is because most are daunted at the prospect of implementing and delivering the sophisticated IT infrastructure and the associated costs required to maintain a mobile workforce. Hexagon removes all these barriers.”
The Hexagon product range offers businesses complete flexibility in the provision of Email management services. All products come with fixed monthly costs which allows for more effective budgeting for business IT needs and can be purchased on a monthly or yearly basis.
