TI companies (technological innovation) know that they must get on the cloud or be left behind. Cloud computing is setting trends. Some applications seem to lend themselves more easily to this new model, such as corporate E-mail.

Despite the rise of social collaboration tools, E-mail remains being a crucial element towards a company's operational success. E-mail is not going away, but the way we access it is changing, thanks to the popularity of consumer-focused cloud E-mail services, such as Google's Gmail. Corporate E-mail typically involves a server-based application, such as Microsoft Exchange, and a corresponding client, such as Microsoft Outlook (on PC) or a mobile client (smartphones and tablets). Users connect to the network, download a new E-mail, upload messages that they compose offline and repeat. This general setup is what many TI administrators are used to, but it is not the only way a professional business E-mail could work.

Not long ago, users only accessed to their E-mail from their computers. Today's seamless connectivity did not exist, and users were not accessing E-mail from multiple mobile devices.

Nowadays, the cloud is becoming the logical point of residence for almost all applications, including E-mail. Cloud services for personal and small business E-mail from providers like Gmail or Yahoo are easy to use and fit into the cost structure and multi-device environments of today's businesses. Professional E-mail is also increasingly residing in the cloud via web applications, such as Microsoft Outlook and a wide range of third-party providers. Some cloud E-mail applications, such as Google Mail offline, allow you to read and write without an internet connection.

However, the risk of relying in Gmail or Yahoo services exists. Let's think about these questions: Where is the data? Do they have access to my information? Are they using my information to offer me personalised advertising? Surely, for a company, these gmail or yahoo services are not the most suitable ones. With this in mind, it is better to trust a provider that offers a professional E-mail system. In this sense, our Corporate E-mail offers the most advanced functions at your fingertips, as we will explain later.

Some arguments against cloud E-mail services are that they are not secure enough, because the messages are stored on a server that hosts many different clients. Most cloud providers do not guarantee absolute security, as hackers can gain access to any server. It would have to be assumed that a third party could read an unencrypted E-mail. Administrators must encrypt all data that the company's security policies define as sensitive, or use an encrypted file transfer, or use another approach to keep sensitive data and messages secured. This is why it is so important to rely on a provider that guarantees absolute security for your mail.

But the benefits of cloud E-mail services may outweigh the risks. Cloud E-mail services improve flexibility, because the mail is no longer tied to a specific customer's device, and any device with a compatible browser works. Since the E-mail now lives in the cloud, there is no need for message synchronisation nor spam filters. Many cloud E-mail services are free, but even if one opts for a paid service, one could save money, as there is no need to buy servers nor software.

• Availability: The cloud, first and foremost, implies availability. For a business, for example, it is of relevance to be able to access the information of the E-mails sent by your organisation on any device connected to the Internet
• Mobility: If we check the corporate E-mail in real time from any device, we can update the inbox and the read E-mails will appear as such on the rest of the devices within the office.
• Security: the cloud-based Anti-spam filters are among the safest in the world.
• Productivity improvement: The integration between E-mail and other cloud applications, geared towards teamwork, allows complete access by a workgroup, which will be able to view and edit documents in real time from any device.
• Goodbye to updates: The cloud services provider introduces constant and faster improvements, which will be available whenever the mail is accessed to.
• The savings become significant in licenses for software use and in expenses associated with the IT or computer departments
• Privacy: in order to access to the cloud, it is required a login, a username and a password, which guarantees privacy, more than ever before, back when anyone could access the computer where E-mails were stored locally.
• Powerful searches: The technologies from the cloud servers allow quick searches among thousands of E-mails in real time.
• Image and business: Imagine that you are trying to sell your corporate image and you cannot access to your information in real time. This does not happen with a professional cloud mail, where you will always have your E-mails. So, of course, the corporate image of your business comes out better.
• Legal status of the European cloud: the service functions strictly under European privacy laws for Online Data and Privacy protection: https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/consumers/internet-telecoms/data-protection-online-privacy/index_es.htm
