Mi8: Microsoft Exchange Hosting
for Mission
Critical Environments
|
 |
Most organizations are highly protective of their
Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint systems, as they should
be. All research points to continuing dominance of email as the primary mode of
business communications, making these systems mission-critical for most
organizations. In other words, when email fails, business suffers – sometimes
dramatically.
It's no wonder that companies feel proprietary about their messaging
and collaboration systems,
and are often loathe to outsource them: the
wrong choice of technology or provider can disrupt an organization for months,
and is instantly visible to ALL members of an organization, from administrative
assistants to CEOs and board members.
At Mi8, we recognize the mission-critical nature of email and collaboration
technology, and we have dedicated
ourselves to building a world-class organization, infrastructure, and operations
for hosting and management of Microsoft Exchange messaging systems and Microsoft
SharePoint collaboration systems. We strongly believe
that for many organizations, the hosting model provide distinct
advantages, which can be summed up as follows:
Instead of
expending cash and resources to build and maintain a high performance,
highly available messaging and collaboration infrastructure, your IT team can be focused where
they belong: on technologies that are core to your business functions, including customer-facing and revenue-generating systems.
In other words, while
messaging and collaboration are mission-critical systems for your organization,
they are not core
business functions of your company. They are, however, Mi8's core business functions,
and we do it better than anyone in the world.

Mi8: Dedicated to Quality
Because of the mission-critical nature of the
hosted Exchange 2003 services that Mi8 provides, we realize that quality must be a
fundamental feature of all services we deliver. That's why that after we became
the first provider of hosted Exchange Services in North America in 1997, the
company also became the first provider to offer a Service Level Agreement (SLA)
with guarantees for reliability,
performance, and security. Today this SLA includes a 99.9% system availability
guarantee (with automatic financial rebates for non compliance) and much, much more.
Mi8's commitment to excellence in Microsoft Exchange hosting services is also demonstrated by
our ISO 9001:2000 Certification,
an international hallmark of operational excellence and commitment to quality.
Mi8 is the only provider in the world with ISO 9001:2000 certification for
hosted Microsoft Exchange operations.
