mailXperts vs Microsoft 365
Microsoft sells business email two ways: Exchange Online Plan 1 (email only) and Microsoft 365 Business Basic (formerly Office 365, email plus Teams and OneDrive). Both give every user one large fixed mailbox and require an annual subscription that auto renews. mailXperts lets Pakistani businesses size each mailbox from 5GB to 30GB and pay monthly, for less.

Microsoft's official list prices are US$4.00 per user per month for Exchange Online Plan 1 and US$7.00 for Microsoft 365 Business Basic, both paid yearly on an annual subscription that auto renews, with a 7-day window to cancel for a prorated refund. Microsoft's Pakistan page does not display a local price, so the US list price is used. Buying in Pakistan is usually through a Microsoft partner, whose price may differ. Microsoft's mailboxes are larger (50 GB and 100 GB), so compare on the storage your team actually uses.
