Mimecast Cloud Archive always delivers
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We have used Mimecast Cloud Archive for nearly 10 years now and it has helped in so many ways. First and foremost it allows us to maintain lean mailboxes, even since moving to cloud based mail platforms our users know they can delete emails and know they are backed up for 99 years!
Secondly, we have a large staff turnover and in our industry work happens via email. The amount of times we have had to search the archive as an admin to retrieve critical information pertaining to a job or client which has helped clarify an issue or dispute has been paid for the service many times over!
Our work is guaranteed for a lifetime so keeping all emails exchanged in the business is a must.
Pros
- Quick and easy searching
- Easy to access as a user via outlook or weblogon
- Integrates well with Mimecast security
Cons
- Integration with new version of Outlook and outlook web

Return on Investment
- It has paid for itself many times over! Client disputes or things that previous employees have said to a client or vendor can be proven right or wrong.
- It has helped in legal cases in relation to a dispute with clients.
- It has helped with internal staff disputes where something was said or not adhered to with policy.
