Understanding the different types of company email accounts available to you can save you a lot of money, join Steve today as he lets you in on some tips and tricks that can help keep your costs down. Steve discusses understanding which staff member needs their license and who doesn’t, the convenience of a shared inbox and the benefits of using Alias’.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Getting company email accounts right can save you a lot of money and there are some tricks that you can use which you can use to help avoid you having an account for every single one of your staff.
- Whether or not you need a licence for every member of staff you employ depends on what it is that they do within your company. Giving every employee their email account means that you have complete control over the account and therefore it can make it easier to manage. However, there is a lot of cost to doing that, with Google, the cost is around £10 per employee.
- Using Alias can allow you to create email addresses such as ‘help@mycompany.com’ which can allow all emails to come into a shared inbox. You may want to have the ability to have people respond from their accounts. Alias’ allows any name that you want, linked to the shared inbox to respond. This can reduce the number of licenses that you require significantly.
- Be specific about who it is that you give licenses to, which is usually dependent on the different roles they have. Take into consideration if they will need offline access or if they will be managing the accounts as this would be the main reason they would need a license.
