Now Serving Christian Churches & Ministries in The Cloud!
In 2011 Q4 we launched many new cloud-based computing services for Christian churches and ministries! They are designed to help many afford solid, reliable, secure solutions without the traditional server capital outlay! We are hosting servers– with charity licensing discounts– in our new private cloud datacenter (click here for a YouTube tour of our datacenter) with flat rate pricing! In our racks– dedicated to ministry– we’re hosting:
- Exchange: Connect any Exchange 2010-enabled client (like Outlook) to your hosted Exchange 2010 server; includes OWA & ActiveSync to mobile devices
- SPAM: Your email is filtered by our Barracuda SPAM Filter 600 (included at no extra cost for our Exchange servers)
- VoIP: Your phones (handsets and/ or softphones) connect and communicate through your hosted VoIP PBX server; includes voicemail and secure instant messaging
- SQL: You get an SQL database on our Microsoft SQL server with daily backup (one month of daily backup history kept on file) and secure remote access
- Easy File Storage: Eliminate the need for a file server with file storage that’s as easy to use as DropBox, but in a secure private cloud; planned for 2012 Q1/Q2
- Streaming Apps: Applications that run from our cloud servers; planned for 2012 Q3
On 12/2/2011 MBS’ cloud services were the main topic of the Church IT Podcast, hosted by Jason Powell of Granger Community Church. Click here if you’d like to listen to that episode of the podcast!

Customer Satisfaction Pledge
Many who serve churches and ministries require that their clients sign a contract. We at MBS have never done that! We believe we should do our best to earn your business every day, and if we don’t earn it you have the option of simply terminating us. We’ve been serving churches and ministries since 1986, and we understand your corporate culture. We pledge ourselves to the following:
- Information we give you will always be accurate and up-to-date.
- If we’re not certain about the answer to a question you ask, we’ll say so and offer to research the best answer.
- Keeping in mind our normal work hours, we will always do our best to respond in a timely fashion and meet expectations. And when a client anticipates they’ll need us for an after-hours project, we’ll do our best to be available.
- We constantly analyze our costs and look for ways to reduce them. Our goal is to make our services as inexpensive as possible while maintaining the quality you want/need. We are a mission.
Specific Network Engineering/Design/Implementation/Support Pledge
- Our team’s approach is different than many engineering firms in that we work with you consultatively, helping you see the center of the target and make decisions that get your ministry as appropriately close to it as possible. We don’t sell or distribute any hardware or software, and thus don’t profit by your decision to purchase anything we recommend. Our recommendations are completely objective.
- Our goal is for your network to be up 99.999% — or higher! That’s the standard AT&T set for the phone system years ago and is referred to as “five nines”; it means no more than five minutes of unscheduled downtime each year. The closer we can help you get– and stay– to the center of the target (the right hardware and software, coupled with our engineering), the more that kind of legendry up-time should be a reality for your team, and we’ve been delivering that for years!
We are fully available to work through your transition to our solutions, and we are also available to help transition to another provider if that choice is ever made. We always do so with good Christian character and grace, and we never gloat when former clients return– which they often do!
