E-mail for Enterprise

Hummingbird reports it will integrate Veritas Enterprise Vault 6.0 e-mail and content archiving software within Hummingbird Enterprise 2005.

The companies say the combination of Veritas Enterprise Vault software and Hummingbird Enterprise is designed to enable customers to better manage electronic records such as e-mail, instant messages and file system documents as part of an integrated content life cycle management solution. They add that joint customers will be able to use a common, unified interface to capture and manage all business content stored in disparate information sources, declare those documents and messages as records and access the content across both systems.

By leveraging Microsoft Outlook, integration with Veritas Enterprise Vault software will support software-based archiving of e-mail and documents from Hummingbird Enterprise, the companies say. Further, they add, the integration helps reduce storage costs and simplifies management of e-mail, attachments and documents via automated, policy-controlled archiving to online stores for active retention and seamless retrieval of information.
