Overview:
The word versatility is rarely used to describe a technology solution; most products do only one or two things very well and that's the end of it. But, when referring to e-mail archiving solutions, calling them versatile becomes an understatement. Current users rave about the message application performance boost, lower storage costs, more efficient data protection operations, and simpler electronic discovery processes delivered by an e-mail archive implementation. These benefits often overshadow the productivity improvements an e-mail archive can bring as they free employees from managing their own inbox due to cumbersome quotas.

With so much to gain, organizations that have yet to implement an e-mail archiving solution should not be deciding if they will do so - but how. This creates a new e-mail archive decision: will a company use an on-premise or cloud-based (sometimes referred to as Software as a Service or SaaS) solution? The latter is more viable when the archive service is delivered by a reputable, well-established provider such as Iron Mountain.
