How to choose
What mailbox features should I compare?
Start with mailbox storage, aliases and shared mailboxes, then check whether archiving and retention controls fit your needs.
Admin and security controls are also compared, so review those alongside the mailbox features rather than choosing on price alone.
How should I compare email hosting prices?
Compare the paid starting price with the billing term and unit shown for the plan; prices may be listed per user or per month.
Check whether a free plan or free trial is offered, and confirm the current terms with the provider before choosing.
Which platforms does business email need to run on?
Check the provider's platform details against the devices your team uses. Platforms covered here include web, iOS, Android, Windows, macOS and Linux.
Platform availability can differ by service, so confirm support for your preferred devices before signing up.
Should I look for an API or open-source email hosting?
Look for a public API if you need to connect the service to other software, and check the open-source mark if access to the code matters to you.
Confirm the specific integration or license details with the provider; the API and open-source marks are starting points for comparison.
