Here's How Our eDiscovery Solutions Work:

Step 1: Capture
MessageSolution eDiscovery Platform captures emails, attachments and network share files based on your preferred schedule and custodian specifications. Organizations that are also retain data for compliance typically enable the archive's real-time, or journal, archiving feature, to ensure the retention of every piece of mail that enters and leaves the email server. Scheduled archiving can be done at any interval you designate, allowing organizations less concerned about compliance to capture the contents of employees' email boxes, including any Calendar files, Public Folders, Contacts, and other folders. Likewise, Enterprise File Archive captures candidate files from your file server according to your archiving requirements.

Step 2: Index
Enterprise Email Archive indexes every email as it is captured by the archive, including subject, content, attachment, and sender and receiver information, and more. Our next-generation indexing technology was designed specifically for today's high-volume, unstructured messaging environments. Enterprise File Archive also indexes data as it enters the archive, including related metadata. By indexing on the fly, MessageSolution's email and file archives cut first-generation lengthy search result wait times down to seconds.

Step 3: eDiscovery Requests
Court deadlines for electronic discovery are only a matter of days away and you need to find all emails, attachments and files in network share relating to the case. With an effective IT planning, you've taken the precaution of archiving all your data on MessageSolution Enterprise Email Archive and File Archive Analysis (FAA) for just this kind of situation. While other organizations are desperately searching users' individual computers and file shares, along with years of backup tapes, you can sit down at any computer with internet access and log on to email and file archive, or designate the archive access to to your legal team.

Step 4: Search
If you know what to look for or not so sure what to look for, MessageSolution EEA and FAA will help you find it. The search interface lets you search for emails and files by sender, recipient, subject, content, file type, file size, date range, file create date, and more. If you have access rights, you can search the entire archive, or select one or two individuals custodians' archives to search. Advanced search features include fuzzy search, proximity search, Boolean logic concept search, predictive search, and full text keyword or key phrase searching. Search within your results to narrow your options down. Even if you don't quite know what you're searching for, the archive will provide alternative search options for misspelled words or names.

Click an email or file to view it—you'll notice the word(s) you were searching for are in bold and larger font than other words. (This is only a temporary change, intended to improve the search process.) Save your results in a search basket for later perusal. Or check your Top Ten, the archive's list of users' top ten most performed search queries, to avoid entering in complicated queries multiple times.

Step 5: Print, Send, or Restore
Enterprise Email Archive and Enterprise File Archive preserve the integrity of original documents, which can be restored to their original format on the email or file server, printed, or emailed. Simply select the checkboxes for the emails and files you want to print, send, or restore, and click the appropriate button in the archive. It's really that easy.
