Assentor Mailbox Manager

Personal Search & Discovery for the End User
Assentor Mailbox Manager provides mail storage policy management to reduce the total cost of ownership of corporate messaging systems and tools for risk management, while significantly improving end-user productivity.

Email retained on a mail server degrades overall performance, increases backup/recovery times and occupies space on the most expensive storage available. To control costs and storage overhead, firms typically enforce email quotas. The result is that people move their email to personal stores (PSTs), which are inefficient storage mechanisms, consuming 2-5 times more physical storage. Optimizing email storage can significantly reduce overhead costs, in a risk-free environment.

Assentor Mailbox Manager can be deployed to meet virtually any message volume requirements while providing future-proof scalability. By reducing the storage burden on email servers, Assentor Mailbox Manager helps firms dramatically reduce their backup and restore times and improve service levels.

Assentor Mailbox Manager provides end users with a Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes or Web-based interface to search and view their private mailboxes and folders. This includes messages that have been stubbed out from the corporate mail server and migrated to Assentor Archive to utilize lower cost storage platforms and improve email server performance. With Mailbox Manager, users can quickly access email and instant messages from their desktop or remotely, streamlining business processes and improving personal content management practices.

With Assentor, email administrators can improve service levels without taking critical content away from the corporate user base or enforcing mailbox quotas that drain end user productivity. With Assentor Mailbox Manager, PST or NSF files can be brought under centralised management while lowering costs and eliminating risk associated with these files, providing an effective alternative to mailbox quotas to deliver mail storage efficiencies without loss of end user productivity.

Assentor Mailbox Manager also delivers Information Lifecycle Management that supports legal and regulatory retention requirements. The IT department can now manage the size and performance of the corporate mail server with powerful retention policy management capabilities and without taking critical content or functionality away from the corporate user base - all while achieving a rapid Return on Investment and a significant reduction in the Total Cost of Ownership.
