Azure Chip Gartner Quadrantizes Archiving

December 17, 2011

Records management has been shown some love this month by information technology research and advisory company Gartner, Inc.

According to the Dec 8, Marketwire news release “Sonian Positioned in 2011 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Information Archiving,” Sonian, a cloud powered archiving and search solutions company, announced that it has been positioned in the December 2011 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Information Archiving.

Over 8,000 customers currently utilize Sonian’s cloud-powered information archiving platform which can be deployed in minutes. It enables organizations to address eDiscovery needs, achieve regulatory compliance, and reduce IT costs.

The Magic Quadrant report, which positions vendors based on their ability to execute and completeness of vision, noted:

The challenges organizations are facing with respect to the management of email data are increasingly being seen with file system data. Archiving products that can address both email and files generally provide efficiencies across these content types, versus taking a siloed approach to management. While cloud archiving can be very cost-effective, the prevailing sentiment to simply give the problem of managing this data to someone else seems to be one of the most common reasons organizations cite for selecting cloud or SaaS archiving.

The fact that Gartner is cheerleading information archiving is an excellent sign. With just a few more Corzine and Madoff incidents and archiving will be a hot topic in corporate boardrooms.
