BURLINGTON, Massachusetts – April 7, 2009 – 123Together.com – a mindSHIFT Technologies company and the leading provider of hosted email and collaboration services for small businesses – today announced the immediate availability of its GuardDoc® hosted archiving service.  Businesses can now utilize this stable, scalable, security-enhanced and tamper-proof hosted archiving service to meet their corporate, legal or regulatory needs for a small, monthly per user fee.

The current economic climate has forced businesses to search for more cost-effective ways to securely store and quickly retrieve electronic data, enabling them to maximize the effectiveness of existing business resources without having to incur any additional expenses.  123Together.com’s GuardDoc hosted email archiving service provides a single, offsite repository for corporate emails and attachments and is easily scalable as a business grows, enabling customers to store an unlimited amount of data at no additional cost. GuardDoc hosted archiving service provides end-users with immediate, on-demand access to securely archived data via an easy-to-use, web-based control panel and can be accessed from any Internet-enabled computer.

GuardDoc Basic Hosted Email Archiving
123Together.com’s Basic Hosted Archiving service enables organizations to:

• Deploy a more cost effective and secure data backup and storage management solution
• Accelerate electronic discovery requirements during legal action
• Monitor employee communication and enforce email policies
• Protect vital corporate data
• Implement a disaster recovery plan

The ability to rapidly conduct searches of large quantities of data with a few simple keystrokes eliminates the need to involve IT personnel in lengthy searches and enables IT to focus on other critical, revenue-generating activities.

GuardDoc Hosted Archiving for Compliance
123Together.com’s Hosted Archiving for Compliance service enables financial services, legal or brokerage firms, banks, medical institutions and publically traded companies to meet the demands placed upon them by the federal government.  Companies who are required to comply with SEC, NASD, Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA or other government regulations must deploy an archiving solution but are often financially unable to implement an in-house solution due to the high cost of additional hardware, software and technical staff.  GuardDoc Hosted Archiving for Compliance provides:

• tamper-proof email capture
• ability to place documentation on litigation hold
• ability to export data per strict SEC requirements

Corporate legal departments, for example, are now able to create complex search queries across all emails and attachments company-wide without involving other departments or inhibiting corporate productivity in any way.  

 “Email archiving isn’t just for large public companies anymore,” said William Flynn, Senior Executive Officer of 123Together.com. “Storage management and the ability to produce email in a timely manner in the event of legal action are two of the primary reasons why small businesses are seeking out an archiving solution.  Our hosted archiving service enables businesses to store unlimited amounts of data at a secure offsite location at a price they can easily afford.”
