Plan a Successful Legacy Email Archive to Cloud Migration

NYC area email expert explores considerations for a legacy email archive to cloud migration, including control of data and steps to success—in a new article from eMazzanti Technologies

HOBOKEN, N.J., July 15, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- eMazzanti Technologies, a NYC area email migration expert and MSP explores legacy email archive to cloud migrations in a new article on the eGovernance.com website. The informative article first reviews reasons why organizations seek to migrate away from legacy archive solutions.

The author then presents options for migrating all or part of the data. He continues by cautioning readers to ensure that they retain control of their data when migrating to legacy vendors' cloud solutions. He concludes by recommending steps to planning a successful email archive migration.

"Rather than limp along with an outdated and poorly supported product, forward-looking business leaders choose to migrate to a modern cloud archiving solution," related Greg Smith, Vice President of Services Delivery at eGovernance.

Below are a few excerpts from the article, "Plan a Successful Legacy Email Archive to Cloud Migration."

Migrate All or Part?

"Organizations with legacy archive systems may find that they no longer provide the functionality required by users. At the same time, regulatory compliance demands email retention, forcing them to examine and address the data in their legacy system."

"Some consider migrating the total email archive to a cloud archiving solution. This option helps to ensure regulatory compliance. And the opportunity for virtually unlimited cloud storage makes it possible. However, moving the entire archive to the cloud solution may not be practical or feasible."

Retain Control of Data

"Some legacy archive vendors may persuade organizations to transfer data into their new SaaS cloud solution. Avoiding the support and infrastructure costs associated with the on-premises system provides the incentive. However, many of these solutions exact punitive charges for trying to extract your data or they enforce unyielding restrictions."

Plan for Legacy Email Archive to Cloud Migration Success

"Obstacles to a successful legacy email archive to cloud migration include massive data files, maintaining stub to message links, and chain of custody compliance issues. Despite the challenges, a combination of careful planning and the right tools lead to successful legacy archive migrations."
