Hosted exchange opinions

[Jennifer Murphy]

Can anyone comment on hosted exchange services as compared to
stand-alone Outlook (not in a server) and Outlook on an in-house
server?

Would a hosted exchange service make sense for just 2-3 PCs who want
to share a calendar and some contact folders?

Any major drawbacks?

Any feedbakc oni specific hosts? What about SherWeb?

Thanks a bunch

If you need to share outlook content, including calendars and email, or need
to access calendar, contacts, and email from anywhere, hosted exchange
makes a lot of sense - even for a single user.

IMHO, cost is the only drawback.

The only hosts I am familiar with is intermedia.net and 1and1. Avoid 1and1
like the plague. (Intermedia is fine though.) Sherweb prices are average -
no red flags in looking over their website. (You want avoid really low cost
hosts. )
