SherWeb set camp at WebhostingDay 2009 on March 18 and 19 along with other industry leaders such as Microsoft, Parallels, and Intel. SherWeb’s team greeted participants in a unique café-themed booth. Featured on the menu was a selection of hosted solutions such as Hosted Exchange, Hosted SharePoint and Hosted CRM. This event was an unprecedented chance for SherWeb to promote its Hosted Exchange Reseller Program, greet overseas clients and broaden its international clientele.

SherWeb’s co-founder and executive vice-president, Matthew Cassar, presented a seminar on the SaaS business opportunity where he debated this new industry reality and answered questions from a diversified audience.

The largest event of its kind worldwide, WebhostingDay 2009 gathered over 2,000 attendees at Phantasialand near Cologne for a few days of networking and exchanging on current webhosting trends.

SherWeb would like to extend its thanks to the event’s organization team for a wonderful time. We are looking forward to attending WebhostingDay 2010!

Yes… The rumors are true! Some hosted Exchange providers are now already offering Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 (OCS) to their customers. Here are some explanations on the matter:

Please be rest assured that SherWeb is extremely excited about Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 (OCS) and we are doing our best to speed up the process and deploy the solution as soon as possible. That being said, we do not want to rush things in such a way that it will have a negative impact on our customers’ experience. Unlike some of our competitors, we rely on Microsoft’s solution for Hosted Messaging and Collaboration (HMC) for the deployment of our Microsoft solutions. HMC is a set of tools and best-practice recommendations proposed by Microsoft so that providers such as SherWeb are able to offer their software in a reliable way.

Since the HMC version of OCS is not out yet, we will not offer OCS right away. Some providers have opted to do so even though Microsoft hasn’t provided the solution yet and we are not willing to take that risk. SherWeb has had absolutely no unplanned downtime for its Exchange 2007 service while still experiencing an incredible growth and we associate part of that phenomenal success to our ability to stick and work under Microsoft’s guidelines and specifications.

SherWeb’s mentality has always been to provide the best hosted experience to its customers, period. This philosophy allows us to offer products that are mature and Microsoft certified for the Hosted environment; unlike that of some of our competitors which take the risk of releasing un-tested early versions which may provide limited features and continual development at your time and expense.
