Rackspace offers their Webmail services with exclusive features that can really benefit your business. Private-label sites allow you to\u00a0use your own\u00a0domain — such as\u00a0your-email-domain.com or your-sub-domain.emailsrvr.com\u00a0— and you can even customize the interface by adding a company logo or changing header images and\u00a0background colors. Webmail also allows you to easily view and share calendars with anyone on your domain and share company directory access. Instant messaging features, meanwhile,\u00a0can be accessed directly from Webmail, allowing\u00a0your organization to easily stay in touch wherever everyone is.\u00a0For improving productivity, Rackspace also provides notes and tasks. And if you have a mobile device,\u00a0as well as\u00a0extra $1 per user to spare, you\u00a0can\u00a0even get push email, calendar and contact syncing features. Finally, you can access your email from anywhere with the advantage of cloud hosting over desktop hosting and do practically everything you are used to doing with Outlook but with the convenience of doing it\u00a0on the web.<\/p>\n
Rackspace has one of the lowest price per mailbox in the industry, at an affordable $2 per mailbox per month, with additional discounts given to those who would purchase for 200+ users. While it is very affordable, Rackspace still provides excellent business-class email that even works with Outlook, is compatible for smartphones and also their Webmail app. Aside from the great features already mentioned earlier, there are others that make Rackspace one of the best email hosting sites around.<\/p>\n
For starters, a subscription with Rackspace gives you an email address with a \u201cuser@your doimain\u201d per mailbox and 25GB of mail storage secured with the best anti-spam and anti-virus protection and SSL encryption. You can even set custom filtering rules to deliver only the messages you deem important to your business and set up as many email address as you want and direct them to your main email address for easy consolidation. If you have two domains to manage, you can also set up Rackspace to receive emails for both domains in one inbox. You can also sync your active directory with your mailboxes for easy login and management.<\/p>\n
All in all, Rackspace offers a pretty robust email hosting service. Of course, it isn’t perfect as evidenced by a few gripes —\u00a0such as\u00a0the fact that you have to pay extra for features that are included in other companies’ subscription plans. It is also not friendly to sole proprietors as it requires a minimum of 5 mailboxes.<\/p>\n
Customer support is something that Rackspace takes seriously which is why they offer one of the best options among the top companies. You can check out the extensive knowledgebase on their website for self-help options or talk to other users in their online forum. You can also get in touch with support representatives 24 hours a day for the entire year through their toll-free hotline number, live chat feature on their website and email support.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
