Keep the record, take it off the live system
Scalenta Archival
Live mailboxes are a working tool, not an archive. Scalenta Archival moves long-term email and communications into a searchable store — so retention is met, storage stays lean, and the record survives staff and platform changes.
Overview
Compliance, contracts and disputes create the same requirement: find a message, years later, in a form you can trust. Keeping everything in live mailboxes approximates this badly — mailboxes grow, costs rise, and access leaves with the employee.
Scalenta Archival captures mail into an independent archive with retention policies and search. Retention rules are agreed with you; exports and access reviews are handled through a documented process.
Scope
What this includes
- Journal or mailbox-based capture from your mail platform
- Retention policies aligned to your requirements
- Full-text search and export tooling
- Legal-hold support where required
- Access control and audit logging
- Independent storage from the live platform
