Why local

Why Ruwais teams pick Saudi-resident hosting

Routing Ruwais mail through Frankfurt or Singapore adds 120–280ms per hop and parks your data outside KSA data-sovereignty rules. ksa-c-1 keeps the bytes in-Kingdom and the median path to Ruwais at 13ms.

Every byte of Ruwais mail lives at ksa-c-1. PDPL Article 29 cross-border restrictions are honoured by construction, not policy.

FAQ

Ruwais questions, answered

Common questions from Ruwais teams evaluating Saudi-resident email.

How do mailboxes migrate from existing United Arab Emirates providers?+

IMAP-only migration. We pull from Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, or a legacy host in the background with no downtime.

Do you handle DNS for my domain?+

Yes. Authoritative DNS hosting is included. MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC are set up with one click from the same console.

Do I need a credit card to start?+

No. 14-day trial, no card required. Plans bill in AED when you convert to paid.

What is the typical email latency to Ruwais?+

About 13ms P50 from ksa-c-1. P95 stays under 2× P50 for SMTP banner-to-DATA round trip.

Does this work with Outlook in Ruwais?+

Yes — MAPI + ActiveSync + IMAP/SMTP all enabled. Autodiscover finds Outlook clients in Ruwais and configures them automatically.
