Small and midsize businesses (SMB) need well-designed and robust solutions that will have a minimal impact on the company’s IT infrastructure and staff, and are at the same time cost-effective. The key is to choose smart and affordable products that are easy to buy, install, and maintain, but that still give the power, security, and functionality of enterprise-strength systems – if possible at a fraction of the costs.

Any company, even small, has at least a portion of its email traffic that contains non-public information. At the same time, most of these companies need to transfer some files that are bigger than the 10 to 15 MB allowed by the most email systems in a controlled and secure fashion, be it to reach some end users or for B2B machine-to-machine data transfers. Totemo’s security solutions TrustMail and TrustDEX address such needs in the most elegant and cost-effective possible way.

By opting for Totemo TrustMail or Totemo TrustDEX, you get exact the same products that are used in the infrastructures of the largest Totemo customers. This gives your company the assurance that the system you will get, will be able to handle your sensitive data very smoothly and efficiently. But as a small or midsize company, is it really necessary to pay for the same high-end solutions as they are used by large enterprises?

With Totemo TrustMail or Totemo TrustDEX, you pay only for the exact amount of users and functionality that you want to license. For example, a TrustMail Professional Edition license already starts with 10 users. This means, that for the price of 10 users you get the full functionality of a system that was built to handle thousands. With Totemo, SMBs can have the same enterprise-class security solutions that power some of the world’s largest organizations – just at SMB price levels.

The administrative costs of operating the solution must be very low, as small and midsize businesses do not have large IT support staff spending lots of time supporting internal or external users of systems that are not smart and user-friendly enough. At Totemo, from the very beginning it was our philosophy that we do not just develop secure products, but we develop products that are both secure and easy to use. There are plenty of security solutions around, but are these solutions user friendly and easy to administrate enough, especially when protecting your sensitive data? That is the question! Totemo always solves the problems without any plug-ins and additional desktop software, letting users continue to use their standard products they are already used to, but in a secure and controlled way.

For small and midsize companies with limited specialized IT staff or for companies that are just simply willing to minimize the impact when implementing a new solution, Totemo’s security solutions are also available as hardware appliances. This way, there is no need to purchase and maintain new servers in your IT infrastructure, as the Totemo products are already pre-installed on well-tested and powerful dedicated hardware. Totemo’s hardware appliances come with a hardened Linux-based operating system that updates itself automatically at the press of just one key.

Totemo’s secure messaging solution TrustMail is also offered as a managed service by some of the most reputable ASPs (Application Service Providers). Choosing this option, a small or midsize business can completely circumvent making any change to its own internal infrastructure, since no new server or local software installation is needed.
