As an MSP you should always be on the lookout for those services that can help you generate that all-important recurring revenue.

Not only that but ideally services that don't require lots of your precious billable hours to manage and support.

Finally, you shouldn't need to be Jordan Belfort to make sales - let’s be honest, for most MSPs that isn’t the favourite part of the job!

Cloud-based email archiving is one such service that ticks all those boxes, which is why we’re really thrilled to announce we’re now able to offer and support MailStore Service Provider Edition (SPE) as part of our MSP portfolio.

As of today, you can provision, manage and monitor your licence usage, right from within our partner portal AND you can enjoy our top-notch pre and post-sales support.

Great news on the way if you own a MailStore Server licence you've let expire...

Starting today, and through to Midnight on the 15th December, we're offering a 50% discount on the renewal of any expired MailStore Server licence key!

Perhaps a licence has expired as a result of difficult times financially?

Maybe it's simply been forgotten about during a rush to make the move to a work-from-home setup?

This is an opportunity not to be missed to get a major saving on bringing an existing licence back up to date and continuing to benefit from the security, productivity and efficiency gains MailStore has to offer.

The world of online data storage, and specifically email archiving, has changed immensely in the last few years.

When Exchange Online was announced on June 3rd, 2015, it promised a “truly bottomless archive”. So long as the necessary licenses were in place, Office 365 E3, Exchange Online, or Exchange Online Plan 2, mailboxes would never run out of storage.

At least, that was the initial pitch.

Unfortunately, the phrase “truly bottomless archive” hasn’t totally held up.

On November 1st, 2021, Microsoft has announced they'll begin enforcing a cap on their unlimited archiving to 1.5 TB.

In a perfect world, all of your MSP customers would have bottomless pockets. You'd merrily go about ensuring they're using the latest and greatest tech, and they'd never query an invoice. Unfortunately, that's not the norm and it's likely you're managing backups for at least one customer with hardware that's past its best before date. In some cases it can be more cost-effective to continue using older operating systems - but this doesn’t mean it's without any cost at all.
