Why now?

As teams scaled and volumes of data grew, it created data retention challenges, putting operational continuity and data access at risk.

The difference vaultastic made

Before Vaultastic

  • No email backup; exposed to ransomware and accidental data loss
  • Historical data scattered across PST files on local devices
  • Manual, error-prone searches across multiple accounts and devices
  • Inconsistent email record-keeping across user accounts
  • Rising IT workload and inefficient local storage costs

After Vaultastic

  • Independent, tamper-proof email archive with automated backup from M365
  • Legacy PSTs migrated into a centralized, elastic storage system
  • Unified eDiscovery console with rapid and precise search across all mailboxes
  • A structured and consistently backed-up archive ensured integrity of records for audits and project reports
  • Automated email lifecycle management and optimized storage reduced IT effort and spend

Lack of centralized oversight was exposing the business to risk

High risk of data loss from accidental email deletion or ransomware attacks, with no centralized backup in place

Historical emails buried in fragmented PST files, slowing down searches and creating uncertainty in locating important emails

Ex-employee emails scattered across accounts, made it difficult to retain and preserve information reliably

Inactive email accounts clogged primary systems with high OEM license costs, driving up storage costs without adding business value

IT teams stretched thin, spending hours on manual backup, search, recovery, and maintaining scattered archives

Behind the results: how targeted implementation drove change

Reshaped how the firm managed emails, cutting risks while creating smoother and more efficient ways of working.
What changed on the ground         What it meant for the business
Email backups and archiving became fully automated No manual time spend and risk of losing vital project communications

 

Ex-employee data was consolidated into a single and secured cloud archive Seamless knowledge transfer and handover with successors getting instant access to older emails

 

A self-service discovery console replaced manual IT-led searches Faster responses to client requests, greater team productivity, and reduced IT staff bandwidth

 

Older emails were stored in an optimized and cheaper cloud storage Lower costs that stayed under control while storage scaled with business growth

 

IT no longer managed scattered PSTs of past and current employees IT teams could focus on forward-looking priorities rather than being bogged down with searching for backup PSTs and historical emails
