CONSELHO NECESSITADO: Quem oferece mais melhor hospedar de BES/troca?
Eu quis jogar para fora esta pergunta lá e ver se eu poderia começar algumas respostas da qualidade boa. Minha pergunta é que BES que hospeda a companhia você recomendaria? Eu estou falando sobre começar o mais melhor estrondo para seu buck assim que eu descreverei abaixo de o que eu estou procurando. Eu poderia realmente usar sua ajuda decidir-se se eu furar com meu anfitrião atual ou me mover para um novo.
Meu anfitrião atual - ExchangeMyMail - Eu tenho usado ExchangeMyMail para BES que hospedo por sobre um ano agora e oferecem um serviço decent bonito mas realmente o skimp no espaço de armazenamento. Saem também de seus clientes atuais que penduram cada vez que fazem um melhoramento. Por exemplo levantaram apenas o espaço de armazenamento para a planta básica de 100MB a 200MB mas os clientes atuais não estão começando algum deste amor do melhoramento. Que dá?
Eu tenho alguns problemas com seu serviço. Um exemplo é duas noites há que tiveram um outage por 12 horas e seu serviço de cliente era completamente unavailable! Também limitaram extremamente as opções do armazenamento do email que dão somente a 100MB para 10$ um o mês (levantaram este a 200MB para clientes novos) e carregam um 10$ extra para hospedar de BES. Têm também o serviço de cliente inconsistent onde às vezes você começará uma resposta muito boa e outras vezes que você não mesmo alcançam um agente do serviço de cliente. Por exemplo quando eu tive edições se ajustar - acima de meu cliente no Outlook 2007 com Vista sua primeira resposta era que não suportam Vista e se eu como me carregariam uma taxa desktop do auxílio de $35 telecontroles tentar e reparar a edição. Depois que eu lhes emiti um email scathing mudaram sua mente e chamaram-me imediatamente e desculparam-se, mas aquele era 2 dias mais tarde. Â Mandam um painel de controle muito agradável e os trabalhos do blocker do Spam de Postini como um encanto mas algumas coisas parecer menos do que o profissional. Por exemplo no Outlook 2007 cada vez que você Outlook aberto você começará um erro que o certificado de ExchangeMyMail é inválido.
Sob a consideração - O centro da mensagem - Um parente de meus comutou apenas ao centro da mensagem para a troca e hospedar de BES. O custo para uma caixa postal da troca é também $10 mas dá-lhe um 500mb whopping do armazenamento. The BES BlackBerry service is cheaper at only $9 a month and unlike other BES hosting there is no activation charge (usually $35) and they have contracts so you can cancel whenever you wish. The other nice thing I noticed is that they have a 90 day money back guarantee which makes trying them out much easier especially since there is no nonrefundable activation charge. Since they also use Postini for SPAM filtering I think they might be a good choice.
Review Sites - Exchange Hosting Reviews - I have been checking out reviews at this website without much luck. They recommend Sherweb which is a Canadian company who has really bad Canadian French speaking customer service agents so I decided against them. On the other hand they do offer 3GB of storage for the same $10 a month and also have an Exchange 2007Â setup. I am still going through the reviews but I thought I would put this out there also.

Have you looked at USA.NET ?
August 15th, 2007 16:00
David I just checked out USA.Net and I cant seem to find pricing or any other information on the site. What is so good about these guys?
August 16th, 2007 01:21
David
We are also long time customers of Exchange My Mail. We just migrated to their new system and got on the new plans. We now pay the same amount, and get more storage.
As for a 12 hour outage, i have not had any outages in quite some time. Maybe this was just affecting some small portion of customers.
As for support, we get great support, and at the few times we don’t get the responses we need, we just reply back in more detail, and everything works out.
Anyway - after moving from host to host, all i can tell you is the grass is not any greener on the other side. So far this has been the best decision we have made..
Good luck.

have you spoken to them about additional space?
August 16th, 2007 08:23
BerryReview,
This is Nathan from Exchange Hosting Reviews. We do not recomend any specific company - all the results that you see there are based on user votes.
That said, the listing you see on the home pages is based on averages. So a company with 2 good reviews will have a higher average then a company with 100 votes with 95 good and 5 so-so reviews.
You really need to look at the number of reviews and the actual review comments to make an informed decision. Some companies offer cheaper pricing, while others are more expensive but offer 24/7 support. Of these some are email only, some are phone, some are by manned ouside the US and others are US based.
You can see the list of Exchange Hosting Companies at http://www.exchangehostingreviews.com/reviews.html including the number of reviews for each one.

Peter,
I have emailed them about the extra space but they have not responded to both of my emails. They have outages about 3 times a month in my experience. Nothing has been a deal breaker but they just don’t seem to care as much they used to in the past. It used to be that you could call and get a support agent in less than 10 minutes now you are on hold for at least that long when there is an issue.
Could I ask which hosts you have tried out so that I can cross them off my list?
August 16th, 2007 14:39
Nathan,
I also wanted to ask you about the reviews. Is there a reason there is no category for TheMessageCenter or Mail2Web? I have been looking for a comprehensive list of exchange hosts but cannot seem to find one.
August 17th, 2007 09:34
BerryReview,
I just didn’t get around to adding them. I usually give preference to those who contact me.
That said, Microsoft does have a Hosted Exchange Server Partner Directory list at http://www.microsoft.com/serviceproviders/solutions/catalog.aspx
August 18th, 2007 23:54
Thanks Nathan I appreciate it! I was curious how Mail2Web looks for consumers. I am really trying to find a good host with a simple plan that gives me more than 100mb storage
August 21st, 2007 14:53
I’ll try and stay away from recomending 1 host or another, I pefer to have you do that based on other’s reviews.
That said, I did look into Mail2Web. The price seems OK for what you are describing, but I cannot speak to their customer service.
It looks like you are also looking for good support, and preferably US based. I’d suggest looking over the various hosts you considered (or those on our site), and see which ones offer the widest time span for support. Some offer 24×7, while other only have office hours support.

[...] Previously I had mentioned that I was looking into alternative BES hosting companies and last month I changed to TheMessageCenter.com and have been quite happy since. This past week they sent me an email that their already generous 500MB of storage would be increased for all users to 1GB for free. Personally I think this is amazing since I could really use the extra space. I just thought I would let everybody know about the new update since my old BES hosting company was charging me the same price of $9.99 for only 200MB of Exchange space. They also have no BlackBerry activation fee and a 90 day money back guarantee if you just want to try them out. Check out the new rate plans over at TheMessageCenter.com [...]

I’m currently using SherWeb’s Blackberry Hosting and I love it.
I just thought you guys should know
November 26th, 2007 12:28
[...] owner when I first was looking into the issue. You can see a bit about what I was comparing here: ADVICE NEEDED: Who Offers The Best BES / Exchange Hosting? | BerryReview I used to use exchangemymail.com but their 200mb storage limit does not hold a candle to the 1GB [...]

I’ve been using Intermedia for my bes and exchange 07 hosting and I’ve had a good experience with them so far. If you are concerned with mailbox space they might be worth a look, as they offer pretty big mailboxes as well.

Après quelques années avec Sherweb, nous quittons enfin vers un autre fournisseur. Sherweb a souvent des pannes sur son réseau, et même une panne a duré 24 heures. Ils sont également très stricts et peu compréhensifs envers les besoins de leurs clients. Je ne recommande absolument pas cette compagnie.
June 23rd, 2008 14:04
We are considering going to SherWeb. We have seen good reviews online about them. What do others here think about SherWeb?
August 4th, 2008 11:35
I am on SherWeb’s trial plan and do not plan on continuing. The biggest issue is that their performance is terrible. Connecting and retreiving messages is very slow. They also tend to drop connections a lot. Their customer service, while responsive, is not very good. They were unable to help me with two basic outlook issues.
August 5th, 2008 13:26
I am also looking for a BES hosting provider. Any recommendations? Like Rick B. customer service is a priority.
August 5th, 2008 14:44
@Steve
Personally I can recommend 3 BES hosting providers:
Mail2web
TheMessageCenter
Exchangemymail
In no specific order. I personally use The message center but the rest of the team uses Mail2Web and they love it.

Link2Exchange has an excellent reputation. I just have no personal experience with the service. I always thought BES hosts should advertise more.
August 6th, 2008 09:48
Ronen - Thanks - I just submitted the form on your site because I am interested in advertising. We are always open to supporting blackberry oriented sites to keep them alive and helping the community.
