Work Anywhere, Anytime and on Any Device
Email is the most essential function of day-to-day business. It’s how we communicate, connect and work with one another, whether we’re in the same office or across the globe. By adopting Gmail, a fast, user-friendly email platform with 50 times more storage than the industry average, you can enable your employees to work efficiently and effectively anytime, anywhere with anyone.
How to Calculate the Cost of Maintaining Your Email Infrastructure
Work from anywhere: Gmail is compatible with any computer or mobile device with a data connection, enabling you to work from virtually anywhere. Whether you’re working on the road, from home, or halfway across the globe from your business headquarters, Gmail keeps you connected to your email no matter where you are.
Manage your work, not your inbox: Gmail’s 25 GB of storage for each user means that you never have to delete any of your mail. Gmail’s powerful search tool allows users to find any email they need in just seconds. Furthermore, organizational tools like labels and filters allow users to filter through emails by category.
Connect with your coworkers: Email isn’t just about messages, it’s about connecting with people. Gmail’s built-in text, voice and video chat allows you to see who’s online and connect with them instantly. View your contacts’ profile photos, updates and shared docs next to each email.
Cloud: More Options, Fewer Concerns
Today there are more options available to companies that need to simplify the way they send email. Many companies start out building their own servers and managing email in house, but find that this decision has serious implications as the company grows and expands its reach.
As the true cost of maintaining homegrown email infrastructures becomes more apparent to executive teams, streamlining these costs has become an imperative. IT professionals are seeking new ways to better manage these costs, but find it challenge to get an accurate read on how much maintaining their own infrastructure is really costing them. Part of the reason is because much of the outlay is buried under several line times or supported by other departments thereby skewing the data. Those who have been able to perform a cost analysis have switched over to SMTP cloud based systems because not only are the economics sound, but the benefits of the sending in the cloud far outweigh running email on premise.
When trying to determine the true cost of maintaining your own servers, make sure you ask the following questions:
1. How many employees are spending time maintaining your servers, troubleshooting problems, or handling delivery issues?
2. What is the trickle effect email issues are having on other departments such as customer service?
3. How much are you paying for storage and archiving?
4. How much time is being put into enhancing your systems to support mobile email and to secure your email network?
5. What is your annual cost for email hardware and software?
When you run the analysis, you’ll probably find that maintaining your own servers costs a lot more than you think. From there, you can make smart decisions about how your business will scale and where you want to put your resources.

SMBs’ appetites for the cloud are only growing as they add more devices and services — and as their concerns about the cloud wane.
Cloud adopters want to do more with devices. Mobility is essential to current cloud users. They want mobile devices for more than email, including productivity and business apps.
Security is a priority but no longer a main concern. Only about 20 percent of SMBs believe that data is less secure in the cloud than it is in their on-premise systems. Thirty-six percent overall and 49 percent of larger SMBs actually think that data is as secure in the cloud as in their own systems.
Local is better when it comes to service providers. Most SMBs feel it is important to buy services from a provider with a local presence, and 31 percent feel this is critical.
