The Wall Street Journal published an article on email archiving in Monday's edition. Nothing groundbreaking, just a quick story about how an inability to produce emails in a timely fashion has burned companies in the past.
The new piece here is the fact that the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure took effect at the end of last year which applies strict guidelines to storing and producing all electronic data that is created within an organization. This is a firm encouragement for not just heavily regulated and public companies to manage their information better, but for all companies to archive communications and be able to produce them in the event of a litigation request.

ZipLip is Number 1, this is why.
Email archiving is a rapidly growing industry. It is not just for the wealthy companies that are under scrutiny by the SEC, NASD, DoJ, Attourney General, etc. Now more than ever investors, employees, stockholders, hedge funds, private equity companies, competitors, and the general public are analyzing companies to the core to protect their interests. Archiving companies need to be flexible.
They need to be omni-agnostic; this means that they cannot specialize on servers; storage; email platform; existing applications, industry, or philosophy. By philosophy I mean whether you want something held in house, hosted, or as an appliance that can be rolled and and turn-key operated.
ZipLip is the only archiving vendor that I have seen that does this, hands down. If I am wrong, let me know, because if someone else is out there and can compete with ZipLip in this market, you need to fire your marketing person and get someone else who knows what they are doing.
