According to Messaging Architects Shares, How to Choose Best Cloud Archiving Solution

Messaging Architects, an eMazzanti, Inc. company and information governance consultant, shares how to choose the best cloud archiving solution in a new article.

The article proposes and reviews the selection criteria of total cost, efficiency, data portability, and monitoring and management. The author shows how the company’s eGovernance Cloud archiving solution stacks up vs. each of these and compared to the competition.

“There is no question that a cloud archiving solution saves in systems and storage costs over the on-premises variety,” stated Greg Smith, VP of services delivery, Messaging Architects.”

Below are a few excerpts from the article, How to Choose the Best Cloud Archiving Solution:

Total Cost
“With a low monthly fee, eGovernance Cloud is comparable in cost to Microsoft Archiving, which charges per user. However, it comes with a more advanced, easy-to-use search engine and superior eDiscovery.“

Efficiency
“eGovernance Cloud is far faster and simpler to use than other solutions, like Microsoft 365 archiving. Users rapidly and efficiently respond to eDiscovery requests. They search, review, and quickly reduce the resulting content to just the relevant records.”

Data Portability
“The main problem with most cloud archiving solutions is that they hold you hostage. Almost all competing systems make it difficult to move your data once it resides in their cloud. Since they don’t allow third party access to their systems, organizations are forced to pay exorbitant fees for extraction or manually extract data based on the limitations imposed by the solution.“

Monitoring and Management
“The eGovernance Cloud offering is supported under eMazzanti’s eCare managed services program. Monitoring all servers, the eMazzanti network operations center issues standard system alerts plus specific application alerts.“
