It's more for the first year where you do the real migration work.. then after that you should not be doing much work.. 6% of 9$ a month times X,000 users for not doing much work at all is not a bad gig if you can make it work..
I am going to do it in South America.. Focus on Chile, Brazil and Argentina.. -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

I worked in BPOS for most of this year as a senior support dood. I worked there until my contract was canceled because I had a discussion over my pay grade with the wrong person.. I am considering becoming a BPOS partner - you get X% of the gross monthly for as long as the customer sticks with BPOS. It's a great gig; if only BPOS was better. Once they make the move to 2010 sometime start of next year it will be an amazing product. My personal email has been on 2010 for a few years now hosted by Microsoft and it's a wonder experience. Ask me anything you want to know about BPOS -- I have no NDA, and I have balls of tungsten.... -----Original Message----- From: Sam Cayze [mailto:sam.ca...@rollouts.com] Sent: Monday, October 04, 2010 12:48 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Hosted Exchange: Opinions on BPOS? I was Demo-ing it for a few months - oddly enough, just quit today. We opted to keep Exchange hosted ourselves. I too was looking into them for just the Exchange, not the Sharepoint etc... I was disappointed that they still did not offer Exchange 2010, which is kinda odd since MS internally runs the latest software even before it RTMs. (Right?). There were also some limitations such as Public Folders, Could not use GOOD Enterprise Messaging, ActiveSync was extra $$. Also, it was much cheaper to just buy Exchange and host it ourselves. I spoke with BPOS many times on the phone; nobody really knew what was going on. A few people admitted it got a rocky start. Many questions went unanswered... I gave up hope.

If you haven't heard of it, BPOS is short for "Business Productivity Online Standard", Microsoft's hosted offering for Exchange, Sharepoint, OCS, and Live Meeting. I'm interested in using them for hosted Exchange for a client. -- Phil Brutsche p...@optimumdata.com --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
