C2C Releases PST Enterprise V2.2

C2C Systems announced the release of version 2.2 of its PST Enterprise solution.

It is a software tool which allows organizations to manage the elimination and migration of Microsoft Exchange PST data throughout their entire network. It has now been enhanced with additional PST file move and copy flexibility and end-user self service to automatically accommodate even elaborate retention management policies.

"Most companies understand that PST file management needs to be an integral component of their comprehensive retention management policy, and yet most haven’t taken the required steps because when performed manually integrating PST file data into an archive can be a complex and time intensive endeavor," said Dave Hunt, CEO of C2C. "Our latest version of PST Enterprise enhances the automation of PST file management processes while offering the dynamic flexibility to support retention policies of every type, without taxing valuable IT staff resources."

PST Enterprise allows organizations to discover and report on all PST files throughout their organization and provides the information needed to make informed decisions on their elimination or migration into an email archive or to Microsoft Exchange 2010. It collects critical information on each PST file, before it is ever migrated or ingested, including its location, age, volume of data, size on disk, and number of messages. The process is performed transparently, without user interaction.

PST Enterprise now includes additional features to support the retention policies and file movement needs of any organization.

New features include:

• End User Self Service. If the IT administrator wishes, end users can choose what policy they want applied to any of their PST files. Users can select which files they wish to keep and which files they wish to eliminate before the PST file is migrated to an archive or eliminated.
• Flexible Move Actions. Once it discovers PST files it can move the files to a specified location, such as from a local workstation to a file server, for future management or retention.
• Flexible Copy Actions. Once PST Enterprise discovers PST files, it can automatically copy the files to a specified location, such as from a local workstation to a file server, for future management or retention.
• Move and Copy Completion Options. Once a PST file has been moved or copied, administrators can select the automated completion options that best meet their retention policies, such as reconnect a PST to its Outlook profile, rename the local PST, or even delete the local PST.
• Support for Multiple Transport Modes. During a PST file move or copy process, it supports multiple transport modes to assure process completion. It supports copying files to a fileshare, the Microsoft Background Intelligent Transfer Service, or standard HTTP web services.

Available, C2C’s PST Enterprise v2.2 operates as a stand-alone product which can be used alongside existing email archive software products or in combination with the C2C ArchiveOne Enterprise email management, eDiscovery and retention solution.
