Fibercloud Helps Clients Accelerate Business With Upgrades To Microsoft Exchange And Sharepoint 2010

Feb. 8, 2012 - PRLog -- FiberCloud, Inc., the leading provider of colocation, cloud computing and IT services, today announced that its cloud-hosted software customers were upgraded to Microsoft® 2010 Exchange® and SharePoint® 2010. This FiberCloud upgrade was made available for both customers and resale partners at no charge and was successfully accomplished with no interruption in service.  With this release, FiberCloud clients will now benefit from improvements in Microsoft Exchange 2010 and SharePoint 2010 software. FiberCloud upgraded all hosted Exchange and ShareP¬oint customers to the latest version of the software, including subsequent Microsoft-released security updates.

The upgrade was conducted by FiberCloud’s team of experts and was released to all customers and resellers in January. The upgrade allows customers to benefit from the latest software securely, without additional license fees and the IT personnel typically ne¬eded to perform upgrades in house. The upgrades occurred with the same security and uptime FiberCloud customers experience during non-maintenance periods.
FiberCloud customers will now benefit from enhanced communication tools included in the new Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint versions. This messaging and collaboration platform is now more focused on enabling mobile access to files for the purpose of improving continuity and productivity. This includes the integration of robust security capabilities and business continuity features. This focus is reflected in a recently published Radicati Group report that estimates Microsoft Exchange will reach an installed base of 187 million mailboxes for both insourced and hosted Exchange, and it is expected to grow to a total of 285 million this year. This represents an average annual growth rate of 11%.

“FiberCloud is pleased to offer these Microsoft upgrades recently released from Microsoft to our clients as a part of our service offering,” said Susan DeFlorio, chief operations officer at FiberCloud. “Our team of IT professionals worked diligently to ensure the upgrade was successful, and completely transparent to our clients and resale partners. This is yet another example of FiberCloud’s long record of outstanding service, while offering best-in-class cloud services and colocation in SAS 70 Type II audited facilities to any business of any size anywhere.”

Since 2008, FiberCloud’s cloud-hosted software platform has offered best-in-class software, including Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint. FiberCloud’s cloud-hosted software is securely provisioned in secure SAS 70 Type II audited data centers that feature multiple layers of physical and virtual security.
