Mail Vault

Universal Email Backup and Archiving

MailVault archives email from all standard email servers.

It provides a centralized, fully searchable email backup for all users in an organization with the ability to search and restore email at will. For any user, any email-id and over any time range. The smart archive scales to accommodate many years worth of email and self-prunes itself based on user-settings.

Enterprise class features like retention policies and litigation support prepare you to be compliance ready. Optional self-service settings allow end-users to access their own email (over a browser, or from within their email clients), without consuming skilled administrator time.

MailVault runs on Microsoft Windows and Linux, and is easy and light enough to be used by small companies, while at the same time being powerful and sophisticated enough to satisfy the largest enterprise's requirements.

See why our smallest customers (10 users) and largest customers (greater than 10,000 users) rely on MailVault to safely preserve their email over the years.
