Modern business lives in email. It's true today and is likely to be true for many years to come.

Orders, quotes, correspondence, promises and delivered work can all be stored in the individual mailboxes for each of your staff. Increasingly, emails are being viewed as documentary evidence in the same way a formal letter would have been ‘back in the day'.

Given the extreme importance of email in modern businesses, being able to store and easily access, search and retrieve in and outbound email has become critical. Fortunately, this is where Cloud email archiving steps up to the plate.

What is Cloud email archiving?

Cloud email archiving allows companies of all sizes access to an affordable, scalable and feature-rich hosted email archiving service with search and retrieval capabilities. Given it is an on-demand, Software as a Service (SaaS), there's no need to install any additional hardware or software – you will be up and running within minutes, automatically archiving emails to the cloud.
