Rackspace Email Hosting
Rating: 10 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
Rackspace offers a wide array of cloud-based hosting services. We are currently just using Rackspace for email hosting. We use their email service for the whole business. We use Rackspace for email hosting because it is very flexible to run on Outlook, Apple Mail, etc., and can be accessed via a webmail URL. We use a SaaS company for our website currently, so with our email system being independent of that, we don’t have to worry about disruptions if we ever change providers.
Pros
- Racksapce is quick and helpful when contacted for support.
- Rackspace is easy to set up and run on various email clients.
- The service is affordable and compares well with any similar services.
- It has a nice admin panel which is easy to follow and understand.
Cons
- No real big issues with Rackspace itself. Some issues can occur with mail clients, but Rackspace support is helpful to sort them out.
Likelihood to Recommend
I think Rackspace’s email service could benefit almost anybody in any sized business, since it only charges for what you use, but it would be best to review any current hosting plan(s) that you already have to see if email is supported for no extra charges. There's no need to pay for something twice.
