Centralised email archiving boosts organizational productivity
Traditional email preservation methods create fragmentation and make it challenging to locate information on-demand.
A typical data access request can stretch over several days as IT teams sieve through the raw data on disparate mediums.
An email archiving solution with a self-help portal empowers users to find and extract their emails, increasing end-user productivity and reducing the IT workload, thereby boosting IT productivity.
Email archiving ensures Data Security and Availability for business continuity
"70 percent of small firms go out of business within a year of a large data loss incident" - Microsoft
Lack of dedicated resource and planning is often the most common problems at small businesses.
Often these deficiencies are compensated by active communication, making the lines of communication (and related data) extremely important to the Management, Continuity, and Success of a small business.
A safe and secure central email repository in the cloud that captures active and legacy email data from your primary mail solution can provide the necessary support for this initiative.
The separate email archive infrastructure reduces data lock-in risks and can be accessed by the users during an outage on the primary mail platform to support business continuity.
Simplifies Email Data Management form information on tap
Traditionally, ensuring the safety of email data required much heavy lifting in a backup strategy, backup tools, backup storage, processes, and redundancy planning in case the backup itself is lost.
Typically, organizations store all this information in a hierarchical, chronological order in the raw state (not search ready). Searching for information from these backups was a long-drawn affair (running into days at times).
Old methods create technical debt & are a drain on productivity.
Modern digital businesses opt for email archiving to durable, elastic cloud storage in a search-ready form.
Automation governance tools help you manage this information to simplify your data management efforts further.
All your email data is now available on "tap" on-demand, providing vast productivity improvements.
Improve your primary email solution performance with email archiving
The growing volume of email use in businesses is causing mailboxes to proliferate and hit limits.
This mailbox bloat progressively slows down the mail solution and the email clients due to increased sync times and heavy storage consumption.
An email archive can create a hierarchical storage architecture with the hot and most recent email on the primary email service and all legacy email available in the library.
Since a copy of all emails is archived in the cloud, it is safe to automatically and continually trim the user's primary mailbox to contain the bloat.
A bonus of the hierarchical storage architecture is the simplified data management and safety, security of all the emails.
Ease compliance and litigation readiness with Email archiving
To remain ready to handle compliance requests, a business needs to have an immutable central repository of all their email data, which is accessible and searchable on-demand, with solid tools for data extraction.
Traditional methods are not suitable to achieve this. Penalties for non-compliance are heavy, and the governing authorities are becoming more watchful of lapses in compliance.

A cloud-based archive of all your email, including legacy email, can help you build this safe, secure email data lake that is search-ready. Strong ediscovery and extraction tools can help you service compliance requests accurately and on time.
Easy migration with email data archival
Migrating large volumes of data can be slow, challenging, and vendor dependent.
Typically, when you use an email system for a few years, many email data accumulates on the email platform.
You would need to pull out all that data from the earlier mail solution and import it into the new platform to move platforms.
Considering that most systems have controls to slow down large-scale data extractions, this process can take anywhere from one day to a few months.
Cloud email archiving enables you to keep a copy of every mail-in an alternate operational infrastructure on the cloud.
Thus, your users can access their mail from the cloud during migrations or even during planned downtimes.
And you don't need to migrate any correspondence from the earlier system. Simply start afresh and refer to older mail on the cloud.Say no to data fragmentation with email archiving
In your organization, emails are scattered across email servers, endpoints, backup devices, and other removable media. This growing fragmentation of email data makes it difficult to gain visibility, control, and find information quickly.
A cloud email archiving solution ensures that all these emails are automatically collected and preserved centrally to prevent data loss, set up automatic governance rules, and enable multiple levels of access based on the user's role in the organization.
