Currently we use gsuit, but there is too much in there we don't use and > 5€ per user is too much.
We need a stable hoster, privacy and no gimmicks.. any suggestions ?
Even 10 euro a month per user is nothing - their salary + insurance + taxes is probably 3-4 thousand euro at least, these 10 euro are a statistical error.<p>We use Office365, because we need Office anyway. We initially used a hosting provider email server, but it's not trivial to get the email DNS configuration right, and you risk going in spam. Even after we got our configuration right, we still had occasional "spam" issues.
How about Mailbox? <a href="https://mailbox.org/en/" rel="nofollow">https://mailbox.org/en/</a> (they support calendar sync)<p>or Zoho <a href="https://www.zoho.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.zoho.com/</a>
It's hard to run a service below 3 Euro/month with good (human) support, those who do often charge annual. We use <a href="https://runbox.com/price-plans/" rel="nofollow">https://runbox.com/price-plans/</a> and are very happy. There was a discount for pre-paying two years and in our monthly cost spreadsheet with 30+ SaaS it's the service costing us the least.<p>There's several previous 'alternatives to gmail' discussions, e.g. <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17448108" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17448108</a>
What's nice about GSuite is contacts and calendar syncing on Android and iPhone.<p>Do realize that Android only supports GSuite. In other words, by default it doesn't support CalDAV and CardDAV. There are apps for that, but I found those to be a hassle.
I recently setup tutanota for my startups email needs. It's terrific. No frills, just works, secure and encrypted email. Can't be happier.<p>Edit: obligatory link tutanota.com
