A combination of the smallest business package that Microsoft offers and metanet.ch, a local provider.

I need MS Office anyway and found it the only practical way (apart from gmail) to keep email in sync on all devices.

Metanet is more flexible in creating aliases and multiple mailboxes. I use that for machine-based communication and mailboxes I don’t need on my phone.

I use fastmail.com. The pricing is alright, and it works well enough for me.

You might get better answers if you mentioned what you were specifically looking for in a provider.

Yeah I’ve used fastmail pretty much since they started, and have half a dozen family members and friends happily using it since not long after.
Zoho for pricing. It’s alright, they answer their support email. They have a bunch of tools like gmail but never really used them.

Single price for hosting as many domains and users as you need. The admin panel makes it the closest thing to hosting your own server, without the headaches of hosting your own server.

Personally I use AWS Workspaces for this, especially if your site's DNS is hosted on Route53. Everything is taken care of automatically. It's been a breeze so far.
mailcheap.co are a bunch of THIEFS. Don't trust these guys.
Since a decade using FastMail.com. Those guys understand how email is supposed to run.
I use Google Workspace and I'm pretty satisfied with it, it's on the pricier side at €6.50/user (for me, including VAT) but I'm the only user and I like the benefit of having all the google services.
