Compared
Against the alternatives, honestly

Microsoft’s hosted suite, with Exchange Online underneath the mail.
vs cPanel email
The Email section of cPanel, the hosting control panel your web host probably runs.
vs Plesk email
Plesk’s mail component, alongside its web hosting management.
vs mailcow
A well-regarded open-source, Docker-based mail server suite.
vs Mail-in-a-Box
An opinionated single-box mail server that configures itself.
vs Mailu
A modular, Docker-based open-source mail server.
vs Poste.io
A single-container mail server with a free tier and paid editions.
vs Zoho Mail
Hosted business mail, priced per user, with a free tier for small teams.
