Email continues to be the leading tool for business communication and collaboration despite the growth of instant
messaging and social media. Business critical information is often stored, sometimes exclusively, in company
email systems. No matter if your company manages its own email servers, uses the skills of a third party provider,
or leverages a cloud-based solution like Microsoft Exchange Online, it’s vital that you establish a sound email
archiving strategy to ensure data preservation, regulatory compliance, and business continuity.
