The GoDaddy email alternative that renews at the price you signed up at
XgenPlus is an Indian alternative to GoDaddy Professional Email for businesses that registered a domain at GoDaddy and want mailboxes whose price does not jump at renewal. XGEN Starter is ₹21 per user a month at signup and at every renewal, the invoice is a GST tax invoice from Data Xgen Technologies in Jaipur, support answers around the clock, and from the Premium plan our team moves the existing mailboxes. The domain stays at GoDaddy. XgenPlus is used by Air India, BSNL, HAL and NIXI.
- The renewal invoice matches the first invoice
- Domain stays at GoDaddy, only the MX records change
- GST tax invoice from an Indian legal entity
- Mailboxes moved by the XgenPlus team from the Premium plan

When GoDaddy email customers start looking elsewhere
The renewal email arrives
GoDaddy sells Professional Email at an introductory rate, ₹39 per user a month when we checked, and renews at the regular rate shown at checkout. XgenPlus has one published price per plan. XGEN Starter is ₹21 at signup and ₹21 at renewal, and Premium is ₹50 both times.
Support is a ticket queue shared with domains and hosting
GoDaddy support covers every product it sells. XgenPlus runs its own mail platform from Jaipur and answers 24x7, with an engineer who can see your domain and your DNS.
The accountant asks for a tax invoice from an Indian entity
XgenPlus invoices come from Data Xgen Technologies Pvt. Ltd., an Indian company, with your GSTIN printed on them, so the input credit is straightforward.

Switching the mailboxes and leaving the domain where it is
- Tell us the domain and the mailboxes. We prepare the MX, SPF and DKIM records for the GoDaddy DNS panel.
- From the Premium plan we copy existing mail, contacts and calendars into XgenPlus while the GoDaddy mailboxes keep working.
- You paste the new records into GoDaddy DNS on the agreed evening. Old mail and every address are unchanged for every user.
From Premium upwards the copying is our job. On Starter we provide the DNS records and the written steps, and any IMAP copy tool works.
