whitepaper Microsoft Online Services Delivers Enterprise-Class Communications to Growing Retail Business Business2008-11-01 Microsoft
  Archiver's had established 45 retail outlets across the United States in less than eight years. But with that expansion came natural growing pains. The company's POP3-based e-mail system no longer suited the enterprise into which Archiver's was evolving. At the same time, Archiver's was not in a position to migrate to Microsoft Exchange Server 2007. Building an on-premises infrastructure would be costly, and Archiver's three-person IT team did not have the time or the resources to support it. Archiver's turned to Microsoft Gold Certified Partner Virteva, which introduced them to the Business Productivity Online Suite from Microsoft Online Services. By subscribing to Microsoft Exchange Online, Archiver's gained the enterprise-class features and services it needed without the cost of building—or the burden of managing—in-house infrastructure.
