Most organizations struggle to formalize email archiving / retention policies.  But regulatory requirements, litigation, compliance and out-of-control mailbox sizes are forcing businesses both large and small to address the growing email archiving dilemma. 

According to industry analysts, email volume in organizations is growing by more than 30% annually, and the average user receives 7MB of data per day via email. Couple the growing size of email data stores with requirements to retain email records for regulatory compliance and legal discovery – there is a driving need for email archiving solutions that reduce the size of email data stores, gain operational efficiencies and reduce costs.

In addition to these challenges, IT departments want to know how to control costs of the email environment, while keeping important data accessible for business, legal and regulatory users.
