BlueTie Hosted Exchange review
A collaboration-focused hosted Exchange service with device management and a 30-day trial.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
BlueTie Hosted Exchange provides hosted Microsoft Exchange email for growing businesses that need more than individual mailboxes. Alongside web and mobile email access, it includes calendar, contact, file-sharing, shared-calendar, meeting-scheduling, and company-wide task features. The service supports web, Windows, iOS, and Android access, with Outlook desktop support listed in its category specifications.
Pricing is straightforward across two monthly, per-user plans. Standard costs $12.50 per user per month and includes 25GB of storage, live support, a 100% uptime guarantee, anti-spam and virus protection, plus optional ActiveSync and optional remote device management. Advanced costs $16 per user per month and adds unlimited storage, while ActiveSync and remote device management are included. Both plans list live support, the uptime guarantee, and anti-spam and virus protection. A 30-day trial is available, while email archiving, additional storage, Microsoft Office applications, registered email, and compliant archiving are offered as add-ons or options.
The strongest fit is a team that wants Exchange-based communication tied to shared calendars, files, contacts, and tasks, with mobility controls available for company devices. ActiveSync and remote device management give the plans a clear administration focus, especially on Advanced. However, the starting price is relatively high for a hosted email service, and Standard requires paid options for two important mobility capabilities. Teams seeking a lower-cost entry plan, included archiving, or a narrower email-only service should compare alternatives before choosing BlueTie.
