The Rising Opportunity Of Hosted Solutions

By Cindy Dubin, Business Solutions magazine.

During the next year, the hosted Exchange market will grow by more than 3.6 million new mailboxes. To VARs, that's more than $600 million in potential new revenue up for grabs. More good news for VARs is that small and medium businesses will triple their spending on remote managed services during the next five years, according to AMI Partners, a strategic consulting firm. This growth potential is attracting more and more managed services providers (MSPs). One MSP that has secured its place in this arena is Computer Solutions Group (CSG). CSG resells a secure hosted Exchange solution from AppRiver, a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) provider.
