There’s something for everyone with The Message Center – you get three plans with completely different features at great prices. However, if you get their lowest-priced plan, you will be given almost no features at all.

Have you got more than 20 users in your business? Alentus offers discounts on their Exchange hosting plans for anything over 20, and the prices seem to be great. You can get a BES, but you will pay a hefty set-up fee for it.

BlackBerry plans for all! At $10 per plan, you’re paying a great price for a BES with Lanlogic, and it includes free ActiveSync. However, more storage will cost you, and even then you won’t get much – only 10 MB at a time.

Prominic’s a little different than other companies – they offer dedicated Exchange hosting and server packages for businesses. However, if you want a BES and a handheld from the same company, they’ve got it. You’ll be paying slightly higher prices than other companies, however.

Storage galore! If you want unlimited storage for all those important emails, AppRiver offers you that and more with their Exchange and BES plans. They also have their own spam protection, and lots of great features. Be prepared to spend $50 minimum – there’s nothing less than that.

A division of Apptix, like its partners Mi8 and MailStreet, ASP-One offers companies great plans for reasonable prices. Watch their set-up fees, though – they can be fairly high. They do have extra security, but you’ll have to pay for it.

You’ve got lots of storage with this provider – they’re one of the only ones that provide 3 GB mailboxes. You get a lot for a low price, but beware – you may have to pay extra for features that are normally included in other companies’ plans.

Rated one of the top 5 Exchange companies in the business, we couldn’t help but rate Hostway highly, and rightly so – their services are top-notch. The only con is their slightly higher extra storage costs, but their plans make up for it, especially since there’s no set-up fee!

Exchange hosting, BlackBerry support, and more – Intermedia offers several plans for good prices. Expect to pay for some features that are included in other companies’ plans – ActiveSync and spam protection are two of the add-ons that should be included.

With a free 30-day trial, no set-up fees and great prices, MailStreet definitely deserves its high position on our review list. However, you’ll have to pay for spam protection, and don’t delete your mailboxes, because it will cost you to get them back.

Need a cheap Exchange mailbox fast? Prices at Mi8 start at $6.00 a mailbox and you get lots of features included in your plan. Be prepared for astronomical set-up fees, though – the better the plan is, the higher the fee.

Looking for a company that will support your iPhone? You’ve got it with NetVigour. Get a great plan for a low price, but make sure that you have more than three users, because you’ll have to pay for three mailboxes if you want the least expensive plan.

A Canadian Exchange hosting company, SherWeb offers its users comprehensive plans with lots of features included. However, they don’t have an archiving service. BES is offered, and the set-up fee is surprisingly lower than its American counterparts.

Lots of features, lots of storage – these plans are about perfect for any business or BlackBerry user. The prices are slightly more expensive, but you do get a great selection of perks. The best thing about this company is their backups – you’ll be sure that your data is safe.

Are you looking for a plan that gives you the full package when it comes to BES and Exchange hosting? JustExchange is a company that specializes only in Microsoft Exchange. Beware – if you get the beginner plan, you don’t get important features like Outlook 2003.

They say that elephants have a great memory, and that’s the premise of this company – none of your data will ever be lost when you have a plan with them. Unfortunately, you’re going to have to pay extra for security, and mailbox size is smaller than other companies.

Perhaps one of the most authoritative brands in the business, it’s no surprise to learn that HP does Exchange and BES hosting, too. Their prices are high, and to get a BES you need to be a Premium account holder, but their customer service can’t be beat.

Are you tired of trying to choose a plan that fits your business? Thoughtbus has a revolutionary idea – why not choose the features you want and pay only for what you choose? This may seem great, and it is, but features can add up to more than most plans ever cost.
