Described by 1&1 as "an affordable alternative to Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint," the software, announced Wednesday will offer small and medium-sized businesses a new hosted communication and collaboration solution that offers business-class email, PIM and document sharing. MailXchange also offers real-time push service for email and PIM on Windows Mobile capable phones.
Open-Xchange CEO Rafael Laguna said that the partnership with 1&1 will help deliver software and services to a wider range of clientele. "We're seeing the dawn of a new era with hosted software made widely available to everyone when that was previously reserved only for installations at enterprises," Laguna said in a statement. "1&1's customers will benefit from access to our collaboration software that streamlines communications and can improve users' productivity."
1&1 MailXchange fees start at $4.99 per user per month with discounts for additional users.
1&1 is the latest company to collaborate with Open-Xchange. In May, web hosting software giant Parallels (parallels.com) partnered with Open-Xchange to integrate Open-Xchange with Parallels Automation solutions in an effort to expand its Open Platform initiative using APIs to help integrate its virtualization and automation technology with third party applications and systems.
While 1&1's efforts are focused on Windows compatibility, Open-Xchange announced it added iPhone support in June.
