Amazon WorkMail for professionals in our cloud-driven world.
When it comes to business email, collaborate on documents and calendaring
service, it is clear that, enterprises need: secure, flexible, cost-effective,
scalable and simpler cloud-based services.
Amazon WorkMail, launched today, enables users to send and receive email,
manage contacts, share calendars, and book resources using the same email
applications they use today (Microsoft Outlook, Web browser, or native iOS and
Android email applications) without buying and managing hardware. They pay only for the mailboxes they create.
Connectikpeople.co can also observe that, Amazon WorkMail integrates with
existing corporate directories, and can deliver the following benefits to IT
administrators:
- Reduced complexity and cost: no need to buy servers, manage complicated software and the associated licenses, or deal with upgrades, patches, and back-up systems. Customers simply pay for the mailboxes they create.
- Security and privacy controls: you can retain full control over the location of your data by choosing the AWS Region where their data is stored. ‘All’ data in transit is encrypted using industry-standard SSL, and Amazon WorkMail is integrated with the AWS Key Management Service so that customers control their own encryption keys. Businesses can require device encryption, require that devices lock, specify requirements for device password strength, and wipe devices remotely using the AWS Management Console.
- Corporate directory integration: Administrators can integrate Amazon WorkMail with their existing Microsoft Active Directory so that users can access their mailboxes with their existing corporate credentials. Amazon WorkMail includes a migration tool that administrators can use to migrate mailboxes from on-premises email servers to Amazon WorkMail.
Users of the Amazon WorkMail Web client can share and collaborate on
documents using Amazon WorkDocs from within Amazon WorkMail.
