The ArchiveOne platform is considerably more than just archiving; it also addresses many of the eDiscovery / Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM) elements. The C2C approach with ArchiveOne is that Information Management is a combination of archiving, retention management and eDiscovery, in an equal balance. The difference between ArchiveOne and traditional archiving vendors is that ArchiveOne does not require you to archive (i.e. preserve) all emails prior to a discovery requirement. If the data is not in an archive (i.e. it is still in the live mailbox, public folder, PST file or a windows file store), the same granular search criteria can be used to find these items. Once found, they would then be moved to a permanent archive (or copied to a temporary archive) for preservation during the discovery request. This ability gives the compliance officer the comfort of being able to act quickly in response to an investigation request and not be dependent upon IT having preserved every piece of data in the system. ArchiveOne addresses the eDiscovery / EDRM challenges easily, with its rich and unique feature set. The core elements of ArchiveOne, such as granular policies (the ability to search on hundreds of metadata fields and across all text in files, emails and attachments), combined with the intelligent actions and the advanced multi-dimensional legal hold, allows ArchiveOne to identify, collect and preserve data regardless of the location of the data (PST files scattered around the organization, mailboxes, public folders, file stores and much more) whether it has been archived or not. ArchiveOne will solve the early case assessment issues from identification through to initial processing and allow you to reduce the volumes of data prior to use of case management software.
