dataglobal’s Archiving Saas Service Presenting new opportunities for IT service providers and significant data control advantages for customers

Unified Archiving in the Cloud as SaaS

dataglobal is a leading provider of Unified Archiving platforms for service providers. Now, many service providers are using our market leading Unified Archiving software solution to develop SaaS or Cloud offerings. These unique services are based on our established archiving platform dg hyparchive which have been re-architected to provide SaaS services designed specifically for service providers. As a result, today’s providers can now offer customers extensive archiving services for e-mail, file servers, expense vouchers and ERP data with one centralized platform.

dataglobal Archiving-as-a-Service is the perfect supplement to Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)

Due to the fact that the amount of data mid-size companies need to archive is usually reasonably sized, it doesn’t make financial sense for these customers to migrate only their storage or server infrastructure. Having the ability to migrate their Archiving application as well is a very appealing option and offering these services will attract the attention of your customers as well. The Infrastructure-As-A-Service (IaaS) offered by today’s service providers enables mid-size companies to take advantage of all the services that a proven data center can supply, from security to HVAC to backup, at an extremely inexpensive cost. Now service providers can also offer their customers the ability to use dataglobal Archiving-as-a-Service (DaaS) to take further advantage of their outsourced infrastructure.

dataglobal’s revolutionary Unified Archiving allows your customers to store, manage, and discover unstructured information across their enterprise. Unlike other archiving products which make it difficult for users to store, search or retrieve relevant information, dataglobal’s Unified Archiving provides a centralized repository that is used to store all email, instant messages, ERP system data, File and SharePoint files as well as call center phone call recordings ensuring that only one copy of a file, an e-mail or a document needs to be archived. As a result, not only do your customers get to take further advantage of their IaaS with dataglobal archiving, they save on their costs even more by reducing the amount of storage needed to do their archiving and reducing the window of time needed to perform the simple maintenance of backup and recovery.

Offering DaaS is an excellent supplemental service to offer your customers, especially if they are already using a Hosted Exchange, ERP or CRM product. The archiving service can also be offered completely independent of IaaS to allow your customers to automatically capture, categorize and index their data, enforce retention policies and secure unstructured information to meet compliance needs while reducing their costs.
