KerioConnect vs Microsoft Exchange Online comparison

"KerioConnect has integration with 365. We can use Outlook, which has its client and can be used with Apple devices. It integrates with the App Store and Microsoft Office. It has a smart router. The spam filtering and antivirus are good."

"The most valuable features are security and privacy because you installed it on your server, within your company premises, not in the cloud."

"Kerio Connect is secure, flexible, and easy to control from the user interface. It has many security features able to be controlled from one place, such as anti-spam. I have found it very convenient. Additionally, you can analyze log files and share folders which is helpful."

"We use the solution as a mail server. It connects with Outlook and is used for calendaring and similar tasks."

"We have contacted technical support a handful of times and received some assistance."

"The user interface is good."

"The solution is easy to maintain, unlike Exchange. It's easy to create multiple domains and back up and restore if needed. It also has good security features like anti-spam and antivirus."

"What I like most about Kerio Connect is that it supports ActiveSync, and that is its most critical feature. The solution is also a nice, simple, robust, and stable mail server."

"The most valuable feature is being able to assign an individual a task."

"I would rate Exchange Online's stability nine out of ten."

"Exchange Online doesn't just do email, it allows for collaboration with inbuilt chat and calling facilities and document sharing."

"The overall usage was all good."

"Microsoft Exchange Online is an easy-to -use email solution."

"The data prevention and protection feature is good."

"The solution is quite convenient because you can access the web version anywhere."

"This solution makes it very easy to receive and detect problems about the mail flow and offers very good reporting. In general, it's very easy to manage the organization's mailboxes."

"The search and archiving documentation capabilities need to be stronger."

"We are considering switching to Microsoft Exchange. One reason is that it doesn't improve our workflow and doesn't integrate well with Microsoft 365 applications."

"The solution could improve the redundancy because we only have one copy of the Kerio Connect server on our hardware. The next step for us is to move to the cloud and if Kerio does not have a cloud version available they should release one"

"It could be simpler to use and install, but I still wouldn't use it because there isn't a compelling use case."

"I would like to see better support from their support team."

"KerioConnect is stable as long as you use a strong password."

"You cannot integrate with other services like Google Docs, Google Assistant, Google Calendar, etc."

"Most of our clients use Outlook and Kerio Connect. Occasionally, Kerio can be a bit slow. They could make it faster to get onto the web interface without so much load time. It's just slow with Outlook, however, for some reason."

"I would rate Exchange Online's stability eight out of ten - it has room for improvement."

"There is an annual enterprise subscription could improve by having more features."

"Exchange Online has issues with its mail flow and content search."

"The price could be cheaper."

"The solution must provide better security features."

"The product needs to embed AI for intelligent searches and analytics."

"The solution’s pricing could be better."

"The solution should have a stand-alone application instead of us having to go through an internet browser."

"The price of Kerio Connect is better when comparing it to others solutions."

"The solution's pricing depends on how long you plan to keep it because you pay on a per-year basis. You might have a one-time setup cost for something like Microsoft Exchange or a Linux mail server. I'd say this solution is expensive on a per-year basis, almost 2000-3000 dollars annually. It doesn't seem to pay off yet, so we're considering switching to another product."

"The pricing is about $3 per mailbox per month."

"KerioConnect has a first-time cost and yearly subscription. It is not expensive."

"The price is not competitive."

"The pricing for Microsoft Exchange Online is quite reasonable, in my opinion. Many licensing options are available so that we can choose based on the customer's needs. For example, if a customer only requires mailbox features, we can recommend Plan One or Plan 2. We can suggest an E3 or E5 license if they need the entire Office suite. There are also premium subscriptions for enterprise customers, offering additional security features. Overall, I don't find the pricing costly because Microsoft provides many features and security capabilities, making it reliable for all customers, depending on their requirements."

"The solution's pricing is reasonable."

"Initially, we had issues with the licensing agreement, but we worked it out with Microsoft."

"Microsoft solutions are expensive."

"The licensing price is ok, I'd rate it as four out of five."

"The solution costs $12 to $16 per user per month."

"The cost of Microsoft Exchange Online is approximately $4 to $36 per user. They do not give a discount which is not good. The solution is expensive if you have 800 to 1,000 users. They should give discounts when you have a lot of users."
