There are many good reasons for using Hosted Exchange by IONOS, both for private users and for companies. While the benefits of a mobile, flexible and scalable email solution for businesses are obvious, private use cases may initially seem less obvious. However, there are plenty of scenarios, such as:
- Study: Private and university emails can be easily sorted and managed with Outlook. This makes it easier for you to keep track.
- Looking for a job: Applying for a job is done almost exclusively online. A professional email solution makes it easier for you to keep track, and the individual mail domain included makes a more credible impression on potential employers. You can also read our Digital Guide article with tips on writing business emails that leave a lasting impression.
- Daily family life: Thanks to a synchronised calendar, couples and families can record clearly arranged appointments from any end device – be it children's school events, doctor's appointments or simply the weekly shopping list and the chores for the week.
- Flat rentals: Flat owners often receive numerous emails from their tenants. Hosted Exchange, which includes Outlook, operates as an efficient software solution that simplifies the general overview – meetings with the owners, flat viewings or flat inspections can easily be organised digitally and without paperwork.
There's plenty more application examples to add to the above list. If you are looking for an alternative emailing solution, you're guaranteed to find a suitable product with IONOS. Do you still require Outlook tools for team collaboration? With our simpler plans, you also have the option of receiving your own email address. Or you can opt directly for the complete Microsoft 365 package, which is also available from IONOS – both come with expert-level support.
