provides the advantages of a cloud-based email service with the same features, capabilities and customization options of an on-premises server deployment. Simply put, Microsoft will store, manage, and secure your businesses email for a fixed monthly cost.

Here's a list of the main benefits of migrating from a typical on-premise MS Exchange Server to Exchange Online:

Easy access from anywhere: Migrate Tenant to Tenant Office 365 allows anyone to access his/her e-mail mailbox from anywhere and from any device: you wont need a VPN or a fixed device, since any user can easily configure their smartphones and tablets or access their email on any web browser. If "web clients" are not your cup of tea, you can use the MS Outlook client which is natively available for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS.

Reliability & Available Anytime, granted by the 99.9% up-time granted by Microsoft's multiple data centers across the world.

Single-Sign-On (SSO). Exchange Online allows to integrate your on-premises directories, thus providing your users with a common identity to access both cloud and on-premises resources.

Large Mailboxes & Emails. 50 GB mailboxes, 150 GB archive mailboxes and 150 MB email sizes.

Real-Time Collaboration using MS Teams, MS Calendar and Office 365 groups native integrations.

In-Place Archive. The "archive mailbox" feature allows any user to archive his/her old e-mail messages using a dedicated mailbox which works in the same way of the primary mailbox and has all the built-in features (including full-text search).

E-Discovery. Electronic discovery (sometimes known as e-discovery, ediscovery, eDiscovery, or e-Discovery) is the IT process of identifying, collecting and producing electronically stored information (ESI) in response to a request for production in a lawsuit or investigation. ESI includes, but is not limited to, emails, documents, presentations, databases, voicemail, audio and video files, social media, and websites. Exchange Online seamlessly make this task easy since it allows admins to search across the entire tenant to find exactly the e-mail message (or text) what they're looking for.

Compliance. Exchange Online meets many compliance and regulations certifications: furthermore, all Microsoft data centers are periodically checked by third-party auditors to certify they meet the compliance and regulatory goals. More specifically, Exchange Online meets the following standards: HIPAA / HITECH,

ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 27018, SOC 1, SOC-2, DISA, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, FERPA, Argentina PDPA, CSA-CCM, CS Mark (Gold), ENISA IAF, EU Model Clauses, FedRAMP, FIPS 1402, FISC, FISMA, GxP, CCSL (IRAP), Japan My Number Act, MTCS, NZ CC Framework, Section 508 / VPATs, SHARED ASSESSMENTS, ENS Spain, UK G-Cloud.

Security. Exchange Online has automatic, always-on protection and a dedicated staff to keep the hardware and software infrastructure components safe from new threats and vulnerabilities. Patching is automatic for the customers, and maintenance is always up-to-date.

Anti-SPAM. All email received by Exchange Online is fed through multiple SPAM filters to prevent malicious e-mail attachments (trojans), as well as social engineering threats (phishing). The filters can be customized to allow certain partners, safe/dangerous IP addresses, content filtering, and more. For additional security, many third-party solutions are available, such as Mimecast, Hornet Security's 365 Threat Monitor, and more.

Encryption. E-Mail Encryption is one of the most important methods for providing data security, especially for end-to-end protection of data transmitted across networks. Exchange Online provides in-transit and at-rest encryption for all e-mail messages sent and received, whether the client uses Android, Apple, Outlook, Windows, Mac, or the web client.
