C2C Announces Advanced eDiscovery Features in ArchiveOne

Aug. 4, 2011 - PRLog -- WESTBOROUGH, MA -  C2C, a leading provider of email, file and messaging management solutions, today announced additional features in ArchiveOne® that allow IT administrators to search for PSTs and when found, search their content without requiring manual intervention. These features give IT and legal departments the ability to discover and search relevant data in PST files when needed for eDiscovery.

“PST files have often been a problem for IT folks but now they no longer need to be relocated or ingested into the archive to find relevant data,” stated Dave Hunt, founder and CEO of C2C. “With ArchiveOne, users are able to save time, reduce storage demands, reduce risk and find relevant data when needed for eDiscovery quickly and easily.”

With the advent of FRCP laws, Freedom of Information laws and an increase in lawsuits, the need to find data relevant to an eDiscovery request has never been greater. Yet, when the data exists in a PST file which can be held on a server or local computer the problems have tended to be ignored rather than tackled because of their scale and complexity.

ArchiveOne will discover PSTs automatically and report their location, size and other information to the IT administrators, giving them a global picture of all PSTs and their owners in the organization. This allows the IT department to immediately assess the scale of the problems facing them and allows legal departments the ability to reduce the complexity of Early Case Assessment by pinpointing the data sources that may be of interest to them.

C2C automates the process that previously required that all PST files be found and manually moved into a central location before being ingested into an archive to search the data.

With C2C, users have:  

•   The ability to remove retired data rather than ingesting it into an archive, reducing storage demands.
•   Simplicity and speed in meeting eDiscovery requests from legal departments.
•   The ability to easily and simply find data.
•   Greater confidence in knowing that all locations have been searched.
•   Reduced risks of non-compliance to an eDiscovery request.

ArchiveOne has solved the PST problems in these companies:

•   The IT department at a leading chemical company removed more than 80 percent of PST content purely on the basis of it having past retention periods, leaving them with a manageable system.
•   An AmLaw100 law firm located in New York was able to pinpoint only relevant data during their Early Case Assessment, reducing the amount of data to be processed in the complex analysis stage by more than 70 percent and saving costs.
