Offering hosted Microsoft Exchange comes with many benefits. You'll increase revenues quickly, reduce churn and become a part of the growing software as a service market.

Increase revenues

Adding hosted Exchange to your offering will increase your average revenue per customer:

• Selling Exchange is a profitable, high-margin business line. Mark up our wholesale rates by as much as 300%.
• You pay us nothing upfront until your customers have already purchased the service - and paid you for it.

Reduce churn

• The number of hosted Microsoft Exchange users is expected to rise to 23 million by 2009, says Radicati Group, the research company.
• Once a business chooses an Exchange host, they are likely to stay, as migrating email and other data is difficult and time-consuming.

Ride the SaaS wave

The market for software as a service (SaaS) is growing rapidly. The SaaS segment is expected to comprise 25-30% of all new software sales by 2011. Businesses of all sizes now accept that business applications delivered over the Internet are the right choice for many reasons:

• Capital expenditure. New hardware, software, peripherals and the never-ending upgrade pressures.
• Expense. Administration, maintenance, upgrades and implementation.
• Complexity. Datacenters, networking, backups, compliance with new e-discovery regulations.

Within the SaaS segment, Microsoft Exchange as a hosted service is one of the most popular offerings, growing at over 39% annually according to Microsoft.
