Fortinet FortiMail Cloud Email Continuity Subscription, 1-Year (FC5-10-FEVVS-309-02-12)

High-volume email environments running FortiMail VM at the 16 vCPU (tier 5) level face greater continuity risk during outages because message throughput is higher. FC5-10-FEVVS-309-02-12 adds a one-year Email Continuity layer to this larger deployment tier, enabling Fortinet Cloud to absorb inbound traffic and maintain end-user access when the primary server is unavailable.

Overview

Email Continuity for the FC5 (tier 5, 16 vCPU) plan extends FortiMail’s failover capability into the cloud. When the primary VM becomes unreachable, Fortinet Cloud routes and spools inbound messages, and end users log in to a cloud webmail portal to send and receive without interruption. On server recovery, all spooled messages are delivered to the primary FortiMail instance. This 1-year add-on requires an active FortiMail VM subscription license at the FC5 tier as a prerequisite and is not interchangeable with FC4-tier continuity SKUs.

Who it suits

This 1-year option fits IT teams managing large-scale FortiMail VM deployments at the 16 vCPU tier who operate on annual budget cycles or who want continuity coverage while confirming that the FC5 capacity tier is the right long-term fit. Organizations with high daily email volume where even short outages cause significant disruption gain the most from adding Email Continuity at this tier. The annual term also provides flexibility to reassess capacity needs and term length at each renewal point.
