Fortiva Adds Enhancements

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Fortiva Inc., the leading provider of on demand email archiving, today announced that over 40 enhancements have been made to the Fortiva Archiving Suite over the past six months. With the product improvements, Fortiva is now the only Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) email archive that meets a full complement of archiving needs, including email storage management with attachment stubbing, advanced search for legal discovery, and compliance with supervision and retention requirements. The product is being showcased at Microsoft Exchange Connections 2007, where Fortiva is the Gold Sponsor.

As a SaaS solution, we are constantly improving our product and seamlessly delivering those product upgrades to customers,” said Chris Tebo, CTO, Fortiva. “While many of these changes are invisible to the customer, they represent significant improvements in the speed of the service and overall performance. Ironically, while our on demand email archive continues to get faster and more efficient, the opposite is generally true for customers that choose to manage their archiving in-house, particularly as their storage requirements inevitably grow.”

According to a recent study by IDC, in 2007 the amount of digital information created will surpass, for the first time, the storage capacity available. For businesses, email represents the single biggest storage concern, and keeping up with the growth of archived data is leading an increasing number of businesses to turn to Fortiva’s on demand email archive.

“Storage is cheap – but managing it isn’t,” said Steven Grundblatt, Director of Infrastructure, Cowen and Company. “As a SaaS solution, Fortiva struck the perfect balance for us by allowing us to have control over important things like our policy enforcement, supervision tools for compliance, legal discovery search, and mailbox management. At the same time, Fortiva’s experts deal with our growing storage requirements and data security for our archives – two things for which they have a level of expertise in that we could never expect to achieve in house.”
