An honest assessment of when hosting mail stops being the right tool.
STAY WITH HOSTING MAIL IF
You need mailboxes at your domain and little else The team is small Volume is ordinary correspondence Cost matters and the included mail is adequate
MOVE IF
You need shared calendars and documents as a core part of how you work You have grown past the point where manual mailbox administration is reasonable You need central security policy and device management Mailboxes need to be very large You send high volumes and want the provider's deliverability infrastructure
WHAT MOVING COSTS
A monthly fee per user, ongoing. For a team of ten that is a real budget line.
WHAT IT DOES NOT FIX
Deliverability problems caused by missing SPF and DKIM. Those follow you. Fix authentication first, then decide whether you still have a reason to move.
HOW TO MOVE
MX records to the new provider, email routing set to Remote in cPanel, SPF updated, mailboxes migrated by IMAP copy. Your website stays with us.
