MessageSolution’s Enterprise File Archive is a comprehensive electronic document supervision and retention software solution for enterprises, non-profits, and government organizations. File archiving with Enterprise File Archive dramatically reduces the cost and complexity of data storage, recovery and backup.

How Does Enterprise File Archive Work?

Supporting more than 400 file formats, Enterprise File Archive is an automated archiving software-based system that runs inside the corporate network and connects to your existing file servers. Enterprise File Archive locates, offloads, cleans and stores files that meet an organization’s archiving policies. Enterprise File Archive’s policy-driven features allow the file archive administrator(s) to easily configure the archiving and storage options to meet an organization’s unique objectives. The file archive administrator can choose which files are archived, how files are stored, where files are stored and how long files are stored.

With no need for on-site installation or complicated maintenance, Enterprise File Archive is simple to use and deploys quickly. Authorized staff can search for, retrieve and restore their files immediately, without IT assistance. However, the file archive administrator also allocates employee archive access and activity rights, as determined by an organization’s corporate policy. This is especially useful for organizations under compliance regulations.

What are the Benefits of Enterprise File Archive?

1. Reduce Storage Requirements by 75%
Imagine reducing your current file storage requirements to a quarter of their original size. It’s not as far-fetched as you might think: Enterprise File Archive applies in-process compression and single instance file storage to your historical file volumes, which reduces storage volumes to about 25% of its original size.

2. Reduce Storage Costs & Increase Server Performance
The file archiving process compresses and offloads historical files from primary storage devices to less expensive secondary storage, which increases primary server performance, scalability and reliability, while simultaneously reducing storage management costs. The file archive also allows the file archive administrator to designate multiple repositories for hierarchical storage optimization.

3. Access Corporate Intelligence
Faster, more accurate search functions enable organizations to easily locate and restore files to meet compliance and electronic discovery deadlines. The same next-generation indexing technology used in MessageSolution’s Enterprise Email Archive drives the file archive’s powerful search features, including full text keyword, key phrase and proximity searching. Enterprise File Archive comes with a user-friendly web-based archive interface, off line archive access and BlackBerry mobile access, along with convenient Windows desktop search integration.

4. Increase Employee and Administrator Productivity
How much time do your organization’s staff and IT administrators spend managing storage volumes on a weekly basis? 30 minutes? Multiple hours? Your IT admin may even spend almost a full work day managing old files. Enterprise File Archive’s fully automated, transparent file archiving process eliminates the need for staff to manage digital corporate intelligence manually, giving everyone back valuable time that can be spent on current projects.
