San Francisco is known for many things: Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge, home of the 2010 World Series Champions and now the city that loves Microsoft Exchange.
More than 23,000 employees across 60 departments and agencies in San Francisco and its county government, will move over to Microsoft Exchange Online, which is part of Microsoft’s new cloud-based version of its Office suite.
For hosted email and archiving services, San Francisco will pay $1.2 million annually, translating to $6.50 per user each month. This represents a 20 percent cost reduction to help the city trim its budget.
Google and IBM were also being considered for the deal. Google as you may recall, landed a similar project with the city of Los Angeles in 2009, which also migrated its on-premise email to the cloud.
