Your Email – Connectivity Equals Productivity

April 27, 2011 – 7:55 pm

If you’re someone who lives and breathes by your email, you know how important connectivity and synchronization are, especially when you work from multiple locations and utilize calendar sharing and sharing of contacts.

Without connectivity and synchronization, you’re not going to be as productive as you could be otherwise and if you’re like many who feel like email is a mission critical application, lack of sync’ing leaves you feeling almost like a fish out of water.

What’s happening? Are you missing something important?  Has that meeting been rescheduled or moved to another location? Have you remembered to sync everything so that you know the info you put in your calendar or contacts is the most up to date info you have? The right solution can keep you attached to your email and collaboration tools and can help you be better able to quickly react to anything that comes your way.

Whether it’s your laptop that you’re plugging in or your smartphone that you’re using as a lifeline to your business or job, productivity is vital. Connectivity equals productivity. That’s why you need to “GetSync’d” with Kerio Connect.

Hosted Email – Helping Email Hoarders Everywhere

April 20, 2011 – 11:01 am

How much space do you need for your email? Are you a deleter or an archiver? Do you have the ability to call up emails from 1996 in a split second? Do you feel the need to do this regularly? Companies have long had to manage space for their users and space limitations don’t have to limit your email hoarding activities. Have you, as an email user, ever had to start doing mass deletes so you could send a message? It’s not fun, especially if you have trouble deciding which ones can go and which ones should probably stay.

Is being an email hoarder bad?

Sure, it’s probably not healthy being a hoarder in multiple areas of your life but in terms of your business email, being an e-mail hoarder isn’t really all that bad.

Electronic email hoarding is much easier than paper hoarding on the eyes and the office space and it’s much nicer to the trees but managing endless amounts of data isn’t always easy for a company and that’s why so many now look at cloud computing options for email storage.

Cloud based hosted email could help you effectively manage the storage of your electronic messages so that you achieve your goals with respect to any record keeping and compliance issues as well as satisfy the email hoarders in your organization who feel the need to keep every message they ever send or receive.

Being able to go back and find an old message could help you:

-Prove something (to yourself or to someone else)
-Save time on research
-Manage client relationships
-Be compliant. In some industries there are archiving laws. You have to not only save emails but save them securely and be able to access them if asked to do so.

Electronic mail hoarders tend to file and archive emails, rather than deleting them. Take away their ability to save emails electronically because of low storage limits and they’ll probably start printing them (digital storage is cheaper than office space!).

They know that they may need to refer back to an old email in the future. Sure, some of them save emails that aren’t probably all that necessary but if your company has the ability to utilize scalable and affordable storage, doesn’t that make sense?

The Problem with Unlimited Email Storage

If you have a traditional email server, it’s not easy to manage an endless array of emails. If you’re an IT person, you’ve also undoubtedly had instances where users have asked about recovering deleted emails or accessing old records from several years ago. The right hosted email solution can make a big difference.

GetSync’d offers Kerio Connect, an affordable hosted email solution that lets you focus on your business instead of on email storage, archiving, Exchange server administration, and other issues that you don’t have time for. Check us out at http://www.getsyncd.com.

How Sync’d Is Your Day?

April 18, 2011 – 8:56 am

Is your day always sync’d or are you often behind in terms of technology updates? The right tools can make a difference to productivity for you and other people in your organization.

Getting sync’d and staying that way is important if you work while on the go. Getting your email sync’d, your contacts, and your calendar all synchronized and keeping them that way makes a big impact on how productive you are while you’re on the go.  Kerio Connect, a mail and groupware server solutionthat you can purchase through GetSync’d can help you get and stay synced with robust push technology that does more than just push your email at your smartphone.

Get Sync’d on the Go

Who has the time to get synced a dozen times a day? Most people don’t have the time to stop and do that. Various programs have varying requirements for synchronization as well.  Have you ever been on your way to a meeting and details have changed by the time you got there? Only, your systems weren’t synced so you had no idea until you  were late, went to the wrong place, or wasted time and energy. If you often work remotely from other colleagues, you could probably benefit from having cross platform collaboration with real time updates to changes in calendar, contacts, and email. Beyond worrying about your own calendar, if you make changes, do you know that your remote staff members are getting the info they need? The right collaborative email, calendar, and contact tools can help everyone in an organization work in sync toward common goals — productivity and profitability!

Push Technology  – More than Email Pushing

Push technology can do more than push your emails to you. With Kerio Connect, it can also push changes to your contacts and to your calendar as well as allow you to push those things to people in your network, regardless of whether you have the same laptop, desktop, or smartphone or not.

GetSync’d – Hosted Kerio Connect

GetSync’d is a preferred Hosted Kerio partner. Kerio Connect, a well-known alternative to MS Exchange offers a robust email solution and enables people to collaborate regardless of location.  This solution is said by many to be the best hosted email solution available.  Another benefit of this solution is that you can have your email hosted on a cloud. This is increasingly popular as companies look for ways to trim the IT budget.  Interested in trying it out? Check out Hosted Kerio free trial or buy Kerio Connect.

Malware, Spyware, and Viruses, Oh My! Should You Open that Email?

April 6, 2011 – 2:33 pm

It happens all the time….people get their networks infected with viruses, spyware, malware, and so on. It happens to individuals and it happens to companies. When it happens to anyone it can hamper productivity but when it happens to a company, it can be crippling.

But how do you know how it’s getting in? How do you stop this from happening?  Should you be more skeptical about opening or not opening emails? Will it even help?

Parasitic “stuff” (viruses, Trojan horses, bloatware, malware, and so on) will latch on to all sorts of emails and downloads. This makes it hard to protect your company and your reputation. Whether your staff is sharing jokes, whether your customers and / or vendors are sending infected emails in, or whether it’s YOU who is the culprit for leaving a door open to hackers and bad guys, infecting your network and the networks of the people you’re sending emails to — stuff happens. You can’t always predict which emails will be the ones causing the problems and those  emails could be opened at work, at home, or through mobile computing.

Isn’t being proactive a whole lot more productive than being paranoid?

Today there are email options that could help protect you and help you get secure and stay that way.  Security is vital and if you utilize the right solution, you won’t have to think about security all that much because it’ll be built in and work in the background at all times. Whether you open an email at work, at your home office, or from your iPhone or Blackberry, you should feel safe in that you’ve got layers of security built in.  This will apply to downloads as well.

Hosted Email & Security

More companies than ever are electing to go with a hosted email solution that includes hosting your email on a secure cloud and offering extras such as antivirus and anti-spam features. Being able to access emails from the office, the home office, or via a mobile device and knowing that you’re secure can help you focus on business rather than on fighting viruses and spam. Instead of being afraid about which emails you open, maybe it’s time to think about upgrading to an email solution that makes it easier than ever to securely communicate.

GetSync’d offers Hosted Email from Kerio — Kerio Connect. Host your email on a secure cloud and get a free subscription to GetSecure — which will protect you from spam, viruses, and malware.
