Business Description

Every company with an IT budget struggles with answering the

following four questions:

How do I cut costs?

How do I solve email management problems?

How do I manage all my information?

How do I find and recover information faster?


The Problem Is Our Email-centric World

BUDGET PRESSURES

EXPLODING STORAGE GROWTH

LEGALDISCOVERY

• Organization halts when email is down

• Worse when it accidently leaves the building

• Can’t afford new storage and servers

• More time spent on backup and administrative tasks

• Users continually hitting mailbox quota due to our email-centric world

• Counterproductive and impacts business

• Highest cost to an organization relates to Legal, not storage

• Being discovery ready starts with sound archiving policies

Impact to Business

Key Message: Cheaper servers, dumb storage and status quo backup approaches won’t help you avoid the problem.

When information is not available, business stops.

• Servers fail, information is lost.

• Not keeping relevant information is bad, not finding it is worse.

Throwing more servers at the information problem won’t help.

• Backup windows keep growing.

- Archiving proactively to reduce the backup problem protects data once and forever.

• Archive requires intelligent management.

- To assist with retention, recovery and discovery of information requires an intelligent archive

solution.
