Email Archiving

Don’t just store email.
make it work for you.

Email archiving is a critical requirement for every organization, but essential that it is centralized and secure. Email archiving should be about more than just email storage for the sake of record keeping and compliance.

Our archiving services cut the cost and complexity of secure, accessible email archiving. It gives your users instant access to every email they’ve ever sent or received and it gives you central control of email retention policies. The result is: reduced costs to store email, a lighter load for your Exchange server, and greater productivity – with staff able to access archived email in real-time and without the need for technical support.

As much storage as you need, whenever you need it. No more email backups

Our cloud-based platform stores all your email – internal and external – in a highly secure and resilient archive, giving you as much space as you need. The default storage period is ten years and we charge by the number of users, giving you predictable storage costs. The result is your business need never risk losing important data due to server, storage, budgetary, or mailbox constraints. No more user deletion or employees hoarding emails in PSTs.
