GO54 and WhoGoHost customers now have access to cost-effective hosted email and collaboration tools with the creation of a partnership between the leading African hosting consolidator HOSTAFRICA and the world’s largest independent email provider Open-Xchange.

The pan-Africa partnership allows HOSTAFRICA and its brands, starting with GO54 and WhoGoHost, to offer business customers OX Cloud – Open-Xchange’s hosted communication and collaboration platform that includes email, calendar, address book, tasks, and drive, along with security.

This allows all businesses, even those with the most basic IT knowledge, to keep in touch with customers, partners, suppliers, and colleagues more easily, whilst presenting a more professional image.

Michael Osterloh, founder and CEO at HOSTAFRICA, said: “As the number one hosting company in Africa, HOSTAFRICA has always focused on innovation and delivering exactly what customers need, as have GO54 and WhoGoHost, Nigeria’s largest hosting platforms. The internet offers huge, untapped potential for businesses right across the continent, and email plays a huge part of unlocking that. Working with Open-Xchange helps us deliver the tools businesses need to communicate more effectively and present a professional image, cost-effectively and without the need for IT skills.”

Andreas Gauger, CEO at Open-Xchange, said: “In addition to allowing HOSTAFRICA to deliver services customers need to communicate more effectively across the region and beyond, working with Open-Xchange also helps the company to increase customer satisfaction and retention, as well as increase revenues from its hosted email services, driving profitability.”
