    It offers unmatched deployment flexibility and broad mobile device support. Business users enjoy support for their favourite email client alongside the intuitive Kerio Connect Webmail.

    Context

    On-premise alternative to Exchange and SBS

    Microsoft Exchange and Small Business Server (SBS) consume significant IT resources. With Microsoft now offering only hosted solutions, organizations need a real alternative for on-premise email.

    Kerio Connect is available in multiple configurations, including on-premise server deployment options as well as hosted SaaS/cloud email.

    3. Users access via webmail, Outlook, or native clients; mobile devices are configured independently.
