Over a number of years, ArcTitan have developed a powerful cloud-based email archiving solution that is ideal email archiving solution for Microsoft Office 365. Although Microsoft Office 365 combines many useful applications into a single package, often those tools are in fact just watered-down versions of the real thing. One particular feature that is not up to standard is the Office 365 email archiving tool.
Email archiving has become an essential function for all modern organizations to have. However, it’s no longer enough to simply store your messages, it’s also required to have them easily searchable and retrievable. This is an area where standard Office 365 archiving could be letting your business down.
Office 365 can search through approximately 50 different attachment file types most of them being Microsoft files. However, there are hundreds of other potential files that Office 365 doesn’t have the ability to search through. Due to Office 365 permitting only 50GB of email storage capacity (including your archive), you can run out of space rapidly – A major downside to native Office 365 email archiving.
Additionally, Office 365 links the archive life to the life of your mailbox. This means if you happen delete a mailbox (e.g., if an employee were to leave your business), then the archive is also deleted. These inadequate features can have damaging effects to the business, including exposure to litigation risk. There’s a large amount of danger associated with not being able to properly retain and search your emails as you’re in danger of non-compliance with government regulations. This can ultimately lead to substantial fines or even imprisonment.
As a result of archiving legislation generally mandating a 7-year retention period, responsible organizations essentially require a better solution, i.e. one that enables the organization to archive their emails in a fully compliant manner. This is precisely where ArcTitan feels they can help.
