Pro Mach Inc. Selects Cincinnati’s Profitability.net for Email Solution

Cincinnati, Ohio - Cincinnati, Ohio based Pro Mach Inc has outsourced their email solution to Profitability.net’s Hosted Exchange service. Profitability.net is providing Microsoft Hosted Exchange services to 11 divisions with over 700 users for Pro Mach Inc. Pro Mach decided to outsource their email to Profitability.net to yield a consistent and reliable email solution for all divisions; and a centralized control panel where administrators can easily add and remove users and assign storage as needed.

Profitability.net’s Hosted Exchange is a scalable, flexible, and reliable email solution that provides Pro Mach’s divisions with shared calendaring, public folders, and contacts. The shared contacts and calendaring feature of Exchange allows for greater collaboration and communication between the divisions. “The shared contacts, calendars, task management and other features of Exchange are hugely beneficial to our organization. With divisions throughout the U.S. and Canada, communication and synchronization are key to our business. Email has become a mission critical application to us. Profitability.net’s Hosted Exchange provides us with the infrastructure to ensure constantly available and reliable email service to every employee. ” states Thomas Scheper, VP of Technology for Pro Mach Inc.

Profitability.net’s Hosted Exchange control panel allows clients to allocate the necessary mail storage on an individual user basis. Businesses are able to view and export detailed reports through the control panel that allows them to account for power users and casual users alike and assign storage accordingly, eliminating wasted storage and reducing operating costs. “Profitability.net has made significant investments in Exchange role redundancy, load balancing and clustered SAN storage solution to protect against downtime. With a fully redundant architecture, we can protect our Exchange environment from outages and service disruption. Clustered storage allows us to add capacity, redundancy, and performance on demand,” details Profitability.net CEO, Aaron Larkins.

“Profitability.net handled the data migration, the exporting and importing of both mailbox and public folder database information which included all of our email, contacts, and calendar objects, making the transition nearly seamless. Outsourcing Exchange eliminated the extensive capital expense of deploying servers, SAN storage and the ongoing administrative burden an internal Exchange cluster requires,” notes Scheper.

The Hosted Exchange 2007 infrastructure is managed and monitored 24×7 in Profitability.net’s Cincinnati data center. “Pro Mach Inc. is able to take advantage of fully managed Microsoft Hosted Exchange 2007 without the burden of expensive technology and personnel costs. Profitability.net’s Hosted Exchange also includes enterprise backup and recovery systems that capture snapshots in 15 minute intervals. This technology allows Profitability.net to restore any email or mailbox within the past 30 days to Pro Mach upon request,” comments Larkins.
