According to Karen Ku, Vice President, Plustek Inc., “PlusServer MFA1000S is packed with features that are sure to attract small businesses. When it comes to its varied applications, it provides a ready platform for e-business and e-learning which otherwise cost a fortune and deter the organizations leaping ahead. Besides its powerful email, security and other features, it’s VoIP and SMS capabilities lower the cost of communication substantially and bring business parties even closer to each other by enhancing interactivity amidst them.”

Companies that use free email services do not really have a great corporate image. Using PlusServer MFA1000S, companies are able to run their own email services so that their classified and confidential information is not in the hands of a third party.

Secondly, using the PlusServer MFA1000S lowers the cost and difficulty of running the email system in a substantial manner. Besides, being easy to install, the PlusServer MFA1000S is also easy to operate due to its user-friendly interface.

The mail server software comes bundled with PlusServer MFA1000S and supports up to 500 concurrent users. Since it supports IMAP that allows remote online retrieval, you can retrieve important emails even if they are not in the office. They need not waste time on data transfer as large files and unwanted emails can be deleted directly from the server. Besides, employees can send emails to each other without using the internal bandwidth which maximizes the ADSL speed. Automatic forwarding / reply system has been specifically designed for sales, marketing and customer service departments.

The PlusServer MFA1000S is available in India for a price of Rs.1,10,000 from all authorized channel partners of Plustek.
