Competencies
As one of the requirements for attaining Gold Certified Partner status, Exchange My Mail had to declare a Microsoft Competency. Microsoft Competencies are designed to help differentiate a partner’s capabilities within specific Microsoft technologies. Each competency has a unique set of requirements and benefits, formulated to accurately represent the specific skills and services that partners bring to the technology industry.

• Advanced Infrastructure Solutions: The Advanced Infrastructure Solutions Competency is designed for partners with proven expertise in designing and/or implementing complex infrastructure solutions such as Hosted Microsoft Exchange. Because customers are increasingly seeking higher availability and uptime, more often they have been looking to work with partners that have the dedication, devotion and expertise to pass this kind of certification. Specializations within the competency are Active Directory and Identity Management, Exchange Migration and Deployment, Hosting Solutions, System Management and Storage Solutions.

• Networking Infrastructure Solutions: Microsoft Gold Certified Partners enrolled in the Networking Infrastructure Solutions Competency have proved their expertise in implementing technology solutions based on either the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 or Windows 2000 Server operating system, with a particular focus on Microsoft Small Business Server 2000 and Windows Small Business Server 2003. These implementations may include crafting solutions that connect Windows-based servers, PC locations and the Internet; installing a server farm; or building a small-business Windows Server stand-alone solution that includes file and print capabilities.

The Microsoft Partner Program was launched in October 2003 and represents Microsoft’s ongoing commitment to the success of partners worldwide. The program offers a single, integrated partnering framework that recognizes partner expertise, rewards the total impact that partners have in the technology marketplace, and delivers more value to help partners’ businesses be successful.

For some reason, starting new projects in a business always seems to come with a lot of red tape. For instance, there are some business deals that take years before all of the details are ironed out. Many companies do not want to integrate new computer programs because they are concerned with how long it will take to get the program in working condition. If you want Microsoft Exchange 2007, but do not want to have to deal with getting the program installed or all of the maintenance that is necessary on the program, you would look to Hosted Exchange 2007!

Microsoft Hosted Exchange 2007 is a way to get all of the benefits of Microsoft Exchange 2007 without having to deal with any of the annoyances. When you choose to go with a hosted exchange, you simply choose a company, call them, and have them help you set the program up. It only takes a few clicks and your entire company will be integrated onto the server. Your employees will then have access to all of the best that Microsoft Exchange 2007 has to offer, including calendar access, contact lists, and instant e-mail, no matter where they are.

When the BlackBerry came out, business people around the world cheered. When the Apple iPhone came out, people cheered, but business people wanted more. They wanted the ability to be able to use certain business applications with their iPhone. Fortunately for them, the people at Apple heard their cries and did what any good company would do: they changed the product.

Beginning this summer, Apple iPhone users will be able to upgrade their phone to have access to a number of important business applications, Hosted Exchange 2007 being one of them. Having access to Hosted Exchange 2007 through your Apple iPhone means that you will be able to have instant access to your email, as well as access to everything that you may ever need for your business. In theory, you could even be able to schedule an inner-office meeting, send an email to a client, and work on business plans from your iPhone while you are commuting on your way to work! The news that Apple was finally adjusting in order to allow businesses to have access to functions that they needed was great, especially for those who already use Hosted Exchange 2007, or those who have wanted to give it a try.

Hundreds of thousands of people swear that leasing a vehicle is the best way to run one. It costs less, and you do not have to worry about having to sell it after you are done using it. Leasing often provides you with the best way to afford even a luxury vehicle at a low cost. If leasing is so good, why can’t you get more things though lease? When it comes to running Microsoft Exchange, you can. Hosted Exchange 2007 is a way to use Microsoft Exchange without having to pay for the expenses that are included when you own your own server.

When you own a server, you have to pay not only for the server, but for technical support to install the Microsoft Exchange as well as to deal with the upkeep. Hosted Exchange 2007 is when you have access to the program through another company’s server. You pay for the ability to use the program, and all of the benefits that you can get with it, and you do not have to deal with paying for all of the expenses. It’s a way to lease the program, without actually having to buy!

Have you ever thought about becoming a salesman? In today’s market, a salesman isn’t exactly what it used to be fifty years ago. No one expects you to go door to door offering the best deal on a new vacuum. No, in today’s world, selling often pertains to the pharmaceutical world or to the technical world. Have you ever thought of being a re-seller? As a re-seller, you are able not only to support yourself financially, but to help other businesses to know what they are missing.

Re-sellers of Hosted Exchange 2007 are helping companies to learn more about Microsoft Exchange and how it can help their business. It is a way to actually help your local economy to prosper; by giving them access to the best of technology for the lowest of prices. Hosted Exchange 2007 allows companies in your area, no matter how small they are, to be able to play ball, technologically speaking, with the big boys. Re-sellers of Hosted Exchange are often hailed as great people by their customers, because they have allowed the company to communicate with their employees better, and to save tons of money as well.

Have you ever had some construction work done in your home? You’ve probably decided that it is easy to tinker around and to do the small things, but what about the larger projects, like removing a wall or building an addition onto your house? Unless you have had a lot of experience with construction, you probably will want to hire a carpenter or contractor who knows what they are doing. The same holds true when you are looking to implement Hosted Exchange 2007 into your business.

Using Microsoft Hosted Exchange 2007 is much less expensive than running the program on your own. But, just like you would when you are hiring a contractor to add onto your house, you will want to make sure that you hire a company who has not only the skills, but the experience to ensure that all of your company’s needs are met. Microsoft Exchange itself is an easy product to maneuver around, but it requires a number of updates, and if you have any sort of problem, you will want to know that the company you call is able to help you efficiently and properly. Make sure, before you hire a hosted exchange company, that you hire one that has the ability to give you help should you need it.

Thousands of people toy with the idea of being self-employed every year, but many of them are too nervous to jump into the void of the unknown. When you finally do choose to work for yourself, and find a niche that suits you and that is profitable, the satisfaction that you feel is like nothing you have ever felt before. One problem, however, that many people have when they are working for themselves has to deal with computers. After all, when you’re working for yourself, you don’t have a huge network of internet technologists at your beck and call. Or do you?

If you choose to go with Hosted Exchange 2007, you absolutely have a team of engineers working just for you. Hosted Exchange 2007 gives you the ability to have access to your important information at all times, no matter where you are, for a very low fee. You can choose to work out of your home and have access to your contact lists and email, or you can take your job on the road and still have access to all of the important things that you need access to. Hosted Exchange 2007 is a great option for all self-employed people.
