Newton, Mass., January 27, 2009 – Mimecast, a holistic email management company offering SaaS-based email archiving, continuity, security and policy control, today announced that Law Technology News (LTN) recognized the Company for Risk Management Service in 2008. Mimecast will be awarded LTN’s Bronze Award at next week’s LegalTech® New York. Mimecast’s SaaS offering addresses a law firm’s need to implement cost-effective, robust solutions while ensuring firms use the most advanced forms of email security, continuity and email archiving and search techniques.

For its sixth annual awards program, LTN editors asked the publication’s more than 40,000 subscribers to identify products and vendors in 25 categories that represent outstanding achievement in legal technology.

“We are honored for this recognition by LTN and its readers. Mimecast acknowledges that in this struggling economy, businesses are searching for cost-effective measures to solve the IT challenges without cutting corners or quality,” said Mary Kay Roberto, Senior Vice President and General Manager for Mimecast North America. “Our SaaS offering reduces IT costs as well as offers an improvement in infrastructure efficiency without a further investment in hardware and software.”

Founded in 2002, Mimecast delivers a holistic approach for managing the risk and complexity of the email management environment with an integrated in-the-cloud solution for archiving, continuity and security of corporate communication and data. Built on a technology architecture specifically designed for SaaS, Mimecast Unified Email Management makes email more useful and productive, removes the fragmented stacks of point solutions, delivers enterprise-grade software services and empties server rooms to facilitate green IT environments.

Mimecast has a proven track record for cost-reduction in customer law firms.

Brown Rudnick LLP, international law firm with offices in the United States and Europe, chose Mimecast to replace their distributed email environment. As the firm continued to expand, its existing email management approach became too complex and expensive for maintaining servers at offices throughout the world.  Mimecast’s SaaS offering addressed the firm’s initiative to implement a cost-effective, robust solution that would keep the firm at the forefront of data security, archiving and eDiscovery techniques. Brown Rudnick further experienced an enhanced level of continuity that would have been difficult and costly to accomplish internally while decreasing overhead in their email management system and achieving an estimated IT cost savings in the realm of 60 percent.  

Miles & Stockbridge P.C., a leading mid-Atlantic law firm with nine offices located within the region, needed an email management solution that could simplify the disparate and draining IT solutions across the board. Mimecast’s SaaS-based Unified Email Management was able to replace four separate solutions for security, continuity, information management and policy-keeping by consolidating the management of the four solutions into one. Miles & Stockbridge realized an instant decrease in IT cost seeing a 50 percent improvement in cost savings, in addition to freeing up IT resources.
