I've used MXLogic at two employers and for a half dozen clients. It's always worked well, price was competitive and they had great customer service.

It looks really interesting. >From my understanding, the way it works is: For inbound, you have a lower priority MX record that points to messagelabs. You can select to manually activate continuity or for it to automatically kick over. For outbound(in a disaster), there's an outlook plugin that will detect your exchange servers are down and will apparently connect to message labs without any reconfiguration? Alternatively there's an OWA style web interface. There's an AD sync tool that replicates new user add/removes to messagelabs(just usernames, not passwords) so new users are setup automatically. It does seem pricey though. There's also MXLogic. Their spam solution includes a continuity piece. It doesn't seem as robust as messagelabs. I think it's simply an OWA style interface, nothing else. MXLogic is far cheaper though. I also know of a local consulting firm who uses office365 as a backup to their exchange server, but I haven't looked into how they're doing it. Curious if anyone has heard of other solutions or has firsthand experience with any of there.
