Intradyn vs. Microsoft Exchange Online Archiving

Intradyn works well for a small to medium business like ours that just needs to keep an archive of every email sent or received throughout our organization. It's easy to search for emails, whether you're looking for keywords, sender, recipient, subject, body, header, etc. The Outlook plugin works well for end users.

Native solution. No third-party integration is required. Rock-solid. Actually many features require no extra cost (unless you want to use In-Place Hold / Litigation Hold) If you use Microsoft 365's Exchange Plan, or other similar Microsoft 365 products, I don't see any reason why you should not use this.

• Outlook plugin is great, but I wish it could somehow update user passwords when users change them via Active Directory. In our environment, users have to change their AD passwords every 45 days, but the Outlook plugin doesn't capture the change, so the next time the user tries to search the archive via the plugin, the plugin doesn't work. Since our users aren't accessing the archive that often, they easily forget that they've changed their password since they last accessed the archive and need support.

• Only its training curve is not that short.
• To protective large amount of data may be trick to some users.
• The import of big data capability can be still be advanced.

One of the advantages of Microsoft Exchange Online is that it eliminates the need for users to use a variety of online tools and programs for different functions. With a single domain, I'm able to supply all my employees with cross-platform email addresses. We can simply sync our calendars, which makes it easier to work together.

• Peace of mind...not having to worry about lost emails
• Allows managers to review correspondence of their subordinates for quality assurance

• I think the solution does not produce a real impact in the organization
• I do not think that we have a real ROI
• It does not change the overall business objectives
