Why preserve the email data of former employees?
In a rapidly digitizing world, more than 80% of business-critical data is unstructured.And email carries more than 70% of this valuable data.
Thus, preserving ALL email data is a vital part of an organization’s data management strategy.
This, in turn, supports regulatory compliance, and retention of valuable intellectual property.
Why conventional methods of managing email data of former employees are failing?
Organizations worldwide, are driving IT initiatives to preserve email data of former employees for extended periods.
However, the traditional methods are limiting:
Commonly used Method 1:
Keeping legacy mailboxes in a disabled state on the primary mail solution such as G Suite can be an unnecessary cost.
Commonly used Method 2:
Downloading this email data to local storage devices is risky and unproductive in data discovery and retrieval scenarios.
60% of companies that lose their data shut down within 6 months of the disaster
So, Is there a better, more cost-optimal way to preserve legacy email data?
