As email has become the leading tool for business correspondence, it poses unique operational, legal and compliance challenges for organisations. These challenges are only expected to get worse as email increasingly becomes the de facto business communication tool. In fact, it is estimated that 131 billion emails are sent daily, with this figure predicted to increase to 276 billion by 2009. If this long term prediction causes some concerns over the sending and receiving of so many emails, then the current regulatory drivers to retain more and more of them will surely cause sleepless nights.
Many organisations are relying on the temporary storage repositories within email systems but since these systems were not designed to store vast amounts of email and associated attachments for long durations, many organisations face major overhauls and huge spend to avoid an overloaded email system.
At Ramesys, we understand organisations need a comprehensive, highly scalable solution for the control and management of corporate email and electronic files. Working regularly with our clients in the Legal, Construction and Commercial sectors to tackle these problems and provide best of breed solutions, we actively support and promote the ZANTAZ Enterprise Archive Solution (EAS) to help organisations manage their email and file storage, simply and cost-effectively.
By implementing the ZANTAZ EAS family of products, Ramesys has helped organisations optimise their storage needs, significantly reduce IT overhead and dramatically increase end-user productivity—all whilst ensuring the long-term retention, instant retrieval and efficient production of email and files in the event of a regulatory investigation or discovery request.
