Why Office 365 ‘Archiving’ might not be enough to keep you compliant Published More ShareEdit

While Microsoft® Office 365™ offers great benefits for organizations moving their email to the cloud, Office 365 email archiving provides neither the functionality nor the security that most IT and Legal departments require.

Redundancy is an issue – Office 365 email archiving stores multiple copies of messages, but they reside within the same platform and architecture, establishing a single-point-of-failure. Office 365 email archiving also lacks robust compliance and e-discovery capabilities that executive leadership, IT and legal administrators will require. And Office 365 archiving options are insufficient for migrating and managing legacy email data archives.

That’s where ArcMail can help. Providing secure, perpetual storage and simplified policy management, ArcMail Enterprise Information Archiving offers comprehensive capabilities to support Office 365 email archiving.
