Managed hosting provider Peer 1 has signed a contract with Microsoft to provide partners with access to the software giant’s Exchange platform.
The US-based hosting firm announced earlier this year that it was on the hunt for partners, having previously dealt direct with customers. Peer 1 said it would target its hosted Exchange services at SMEs at a cost of £7.50 per mailbox per month.
End users that sign up for the service will benefit from 3GB of storage per mailbox, which will be protected using McAfee’s software-as-a-service email protection tools.
