Gartner Magic Quadrant features Retain archiving

This November, Gartner published its Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Information Archiving. The Magic Quadrant positions vendors in a particular market segment based on completeness of vision and ability to execute. GWAVA's archiving solution, Retain, made it into the quadrant as an innovative and future-oriented software.

Gartner analysts Alan Dayley, Garth Landers, Anthony Kros and Jai Zhang write: "Retain's administrative and compliance interface is easy to use for both administrators and compliance personnel, and GWAVA's ability to handle almost any messaging data type allows for a centralised messaging data compliance experience. Retain allows for easy search and e-discovery across multiple outside data sources not held within the archive repository."

Retain's archiving capabilities are important because, as Gartner has stated: "By 2019, 75% of organisations will treat archived data as an active and 'nearline' data source, and not simply as a separate repository to be viewed or searched periodically, up from less than 10% today."

Gartner goes on to say: "GWAVA is one of the few vendors that offers native Gmail archiving support. Retain has the ability to search and take action on outside data sources and to conduct e-discovery activities across any connected data set."

Retain unified archiving

Retain by GWAVA provides multi-platform unified message archiving of all e-mail (including Exchange, Office 365, Gmail and GroupWise), social media, and mobile communication data (for BlackBerry, Android and iOS) for case assessment, search, and e-discovery, and can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud.

The Retain archive is accessible by end-users and administrators directly through Retain's Web Access Archive Viewer. This enables your organisation to quickly access, search, and audit archived communication data, as well as to easily place litigation holds, print, forward, save, redact, and export your message data. Retain reduces cost, mitigates risk, and manages complexity on-premises or in the cloud.
