We currently host our exchange server locally in the Netherlands. &nbsp;We are investigating managed hosting where all software/hardware would be located in London. &nbsp;The 3rd party is offering a system where all Outlook clients will access the platform via the Internet utilising RPC over HTTPS with a secure sign in. &nbsp;SSL and Kerberos based authentication will be used.<br />
<br />
Has anyone seen this type of setup? &nbsp;My main concern is that there may be sluggish outlook access here in the office. &nbsp;Also, if the internet connection goes down there would be no internal email.<br />
<br />
Any thoughts?
