A solution that helps us sunset applications and manages data
It scales very well. We haven't completed any massive implementations, but we've never run into any scalability issues with the implementations we have. The number of users varies drastically and depends on what data is archived. For example, the users will be HR if HR data is archived. Or, if you're archiving financial system data or line of business applications, the users will be different. It's not licensed per user but on the amount of content in the system. So you can have as many users as you want. Maintenance only requires a fraction of the resources. It generally doesn't take up full-time resources to manage and administer. It's low-key once the system is in place and set up.

Archives emails and files, providing indexes for searching the archives
Veritas Enterprise Vault.cloud archives emails and files, providing indexes for searching the archives. It integrates with Outlook as a plugin and speeds up backup. However, with the deployment of Office 365, it now focuses on archiving and protecting emails. It serves as a legal protection tool…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It has a strong XML engine for reading data and making it indexed and searchable."
"The tool streamlines data discovery processes for compliance by setting up a gateway to copy every incoming and outgoing email to the archive independently of the mailbox. This ensures that even if a user deletes their mailbox, the emails are still available in the archive, making it a compliant solution for monitoring all incoming and outgoing emails. Additionally, it offers the ability to place legal holds on important emails."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
 

Cons

"It requires a decent amount of XL mapping."
"Technical support could be better."
"The tool has had some scalability issues, but now that it's offered as a cloud service, it's easier to manage. However, setting it up isn't as straightforward as it used to be, and there may be limitations with the support provided during setup and testing. Also, the quality of support has declined in the past year."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The tool is expensive, and I rate its price as eight out of ten. It might not be very expensive. However, comparing it with something that's free or already included in the price is challenging, like the Office 365 archive mailbox. Previously, this was part of the subscription price. Now, it's an additional cost, typically covered by departments like legal or compliance rather than IT."
