Intermedia Webinars are hour-long events that focus on a topic important to business interested in using hosted messaging and collaboration services. The goal is to provide you with the information you need to make a decision about hosted services and to create an interactive experience where you can ask us important questions.
Despite email being the most important means of communications for business, many businesses are using email systems that leave their sensitive and important data unprotected. In addition to a simple tool for communication, email is now used for negotiating contracts, storing files, assigning tasks, scheduling meetings and more. Because of this, email has quickly become one of the biggest stores of critical information for businesses. Unfortunately, many are putting this information at risk by using subpar email infrastructures that do not have the back-up, redundancy and security processes necessary to properly safeguard their data. This webinar will discuss why data protection is so critical, how most email systems fall short and how hosted Exchange 2007 provides a more secure data protection environment.
When considering whether to go with an in-house or hosted model for deploying Microsoft Exchange for email, many businesses – and small to midsized businesses in particular – make the mistake of cost comparing dissimilar infrastructures. In-house deployments often involve a single server with no back-up hardware, no redundancy or failover capabilities and no guarantee of data protection. On the other hand, a hosted Exchange deployment through Intermedia involves a world-class infrastructure that guarantees 99.999% uptime, is hosted out of Tier-4 datacenters, uses SAN storage, and is SAS 70 Type II certified. The two environments are extremely different, making a value, rather than cost, comparison more relevant to the decision making process. This webinar will walk you through the layers of Intermedia’s world-class infrastructure and the value it provides to SMB customers.
Over the past five years, email has become one of the most critical tools to doing business, making email downtime totally unacceptable. Email has become so important that management consulting firm Eagle Rock Alliance reports that 40% of businesses that go more than 24 hours without access to their email and data go out of business. Despite this threat, email downtime is a part of life for IT managers and companies everywhere – but the smart ones employ the right business continuity tools to protect themselves from data loss or extended unavailability. This webinar will discuss the affect that downtime has on businesses, the different options for protecting your business and what business continuity solutions Intermedia offers to its customers.
Businesses today recognize the technological, business and financial benefits of the Software as a Service (SaaS) model. However, many are still resistant to adopting SaaS, even for non-core applications, simply because they do not want to break the connections and integrations they've built between them and those truly essential applications. Intermedia now provides a solution to this problem that allows businesses to better integrate hosted and on premise software. This hour-long webinar will explain how Intermedia's proprietary Active Directory synchronization tool, UserPilot, allows companies who manage their users with Active Directory to integrate their existing applications with Intermedia's hosted Exchange environment. We'll explore how UserPilot lets administrators manage all users from one central portal across all of the business’s on-premise and hosted applications.
One of the biggest concerns customers express about moving to a hosted Exchange service is about relinquishing control. The last thing they want is to have to wait hours or days for a hosting provider administrator to assist with everyday tasks including user management, basic mailbox and storage administration and mobile device set up and configuration. This is why Intermedia created HostPilot, a unique web-based control panel that lets its customers outsource their email without giving up control. This webinar provides an overview Intermedia’s HostPilot control panel, what functionality it exposes to both administrators and end users, and how it is far more powerful than the plain vanilla control panel many other hosting providers offers.
Hosted Exchange is a compelling solution for utilizing the world’s leading email and collaboration platform. It offers benefits in flexibility, upfront costs, and management and maintenance simplicity. However, hosted Exchange is not the right solution for every business. As businesses evaluate the hosted model for their Microsoft Exchange deployment, it’s important that they understand what makes it the right, or wrong, choice for them. In this webinar, we will explore the key factors that drive whether a business should consider hosted Exchange or pursue an on-premise solution.
Exchange 2007 is a powerful business email and collaboration solution. However, Exchange is not a self-contained, stand-alone solution. It relies of a large and complex ecosystem of add-ons and complimentary products to deliver the full range of benefits to business customers. In this webinar we’ll explore some of the key ecosystem components of a complete Exchange 2007 deployment, and how each contributes to the overall solution. For each component we’ll look at its cost and complexity for deployment and management.

The BlackBerry smartphone is one of the most popular mobile devices today, and a critical tool for busy professionals to access corporate email remotely. However, there are two different solutions for connecting a BlackBerry smartphone with a Microsoft Exchange Server; The BlackBerry Internet Service and the BlackBerry Enterprise Server. In this Webinar, Intermedia and Research In Motion will explain the differences between these two solutions and why the BlackBerry Enterprise Server is the clear choice for any business professional.
One of the biggest concerns businesses have in moving to a hosted MS Exchange service is that of security, believing that their business email is more secure in an on premise deployment. But is that really the case? This webinar will explore the relative security of Microsoft Exchange in an on premise deployment vs. a hosted deployment, and debunk some common security myths about hosted Exchange security.
