PROACTIVE House Hunting vs Home Stalking

June 29, 2013

 

By Bill Wendel

Hypotheses: ProactHH 1Q2013

Owning email archives in the age of big data

June 28, 2013

 

By Lindsey Framer

There's an ever-growing volume of information for which organizations are held accountable. While some files may be discarded after use, the majority of business information needs to be cataloged and maintained, sometimes for years at a time. This creates a mounting strain on legacy systems that can only house a finite amount of information or may no longer be compatible with modern resources.
