release detailBelvoir Lettings Outsources IT to Cobweb To Provide Email and Internet Access To 140 Franchised UK OfficesLettings company reduces IT costs and provides top-class technical support using Cobweb’s Hosted Microsoft Exchange Server Fareham, UK – 14 October, 2008: Belvoir Lettings, one of the UK’s biggest franchised lettings agents, has outsourced all its business communication management and web hosting needs to Cobweb Solutions. By providing over 500 mailboxes to 140 offices via Cobweb’s Hosted Microsoft Exchange service, Belvoir Lettings has reduced IT costs while providing its franchisees with a highly effective and completely secure IT infrastructure that will enable the company to concentrate on building a successful business rather than worrying about technology. Previously, Belvoir Lettings used an on-premise IT solution, which was expensive to maintain and difficult to expand. But with Cobweb’s Hosted Microsoft Exchange service, which is highly scalable and flexible, the IT infrastructure has been able to grow as the company expands, enabling Belvoir Lettings to quickly and easily roll out 500 mailboxes; more than doubling the amount of mailboxes it had with the on-premise solution. Cobweb’s Hosted Microsoft Exchange service gives users shared access to email, diaries and address books from any secure internet connection including BlackBerrys and iPhones. It also features highly effective anti-virus and anti-spam filters, which protect franchise offices from malicious and irritating spam emails. The ‘journal mailbox’ feature, whereby a copy of every sent email is archived for future retrieval, is also proving very useful for referring back to previous correspondence for legal purposes or if a dispute should arise. Cobweb is also hosting Belvoir Lettings website to ensure its online presence. This is critical as the majority of Belvoir Lettings customer enquiries come via the website www.belvoirlettings.com. “We do everything we can to help our franchisees operate successfully and that includes spending time, money and resources to ensure that they are able to run the business smoothly and efficiently,” commented Andrew Goddard, Belvoir Letting’s Head of IT. “We have been extremely impressed with Cobweb’s responsiveness and exceptionally high standard of service.” “Outsourcing IT makes complete sense for a franchise business model; it’s reliable, completely scalable and guarantees a quality IT service across all branches,” commented Mark Adams, Managing Director, Cobweb Solutions. “With Cobweb’s Hosted Microsoft Exchange service, Belvoir Lettings’ 140 franchised offices can concentrate on increasing business in their local area in the knowledge that their IT infrastructure won’t let them down.” Ends Notes to Editors About Cobweb The company offers managed services including Hosted Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft SharePoint with mobile and archival solutions, web and SaaS hosting, and white-label hosting for reseller and referral partners.
