Houston, We Have a Problem

Know when it’s time to look for an archive alternative.

Slow performance

Over time, as years and years of backed-up emails accumulate, the backend SQL database slows down, indexes become corrupt, causing searches to get bogged down and produce inconsistent and incomplete results.

Lack of support

Old email archives simply can’t scale to meet the needs and regulatory demands of the modern workplace. As a result, they gradually phase-out software updates and eventually, drop support altogether, exposing customers to potential data breaches.

High Cost

At some point, the cost of managing your email archive outweighs its value. To make matters worse, some vendors store archived data in a proprietary format and charge exorbitant fees to extract the data, making the switch to an alternative solution difficult.

Break Free From the Risk and Excessive Cost of Using an Aging Archive

Key questions to answer before making the move.

Archive more than email?

Email isn’t the only form of communication, nor is it the only type of data that needs to be managed. If you need to manage more than just email data, consider archives that accommodate all types of data from all types of systems.  

How much control is needed?

The Cloud offers a more scalable and extensible platform for managing your ever-increasing volume of data as well as many security options. You will need to decide who you are most comfortable with setting and managing your data security policies and processes – your security team or a third-party vendor.

Can data compliance & integrity be assured?

When planning an archive migration, it’s essential to verify that the migration of your current archived data can be completed without damaging chain of custody or impacting your day-to-day operations and that your legal and other personnel have appropriate access to historical data for eDiscovery, FOIA and business intelligence purposes.
