New Sherpa Whitepaper: Migrate PST Files
Mon, Sep 19th 2011 10:11a   Sherpa Software
Sherpa Software has recently released a new whitepaper, "Migrate PST Files." Outlook personal folder files, commonly known as PST files, have been around since the mid-1990’s. And the migration of PSTs has been a hot topic for many years. As a result, and with the rise of more strict corporate compliance, PST strategy is growing increasingly tougher and more complicated for IT administrators to deal with. It doesn’t make it easier that there are many different options and [read] Keywords: exchange exchange outlook

Exceptions in Ediscovery Searching

One of the key components of the electronic discovery process is the ability to cull and filter data. In an ideal world, your criteria would be run against easily accessible custodian data stores. With a few clicks of some fancy buttons, a relevant, pristine data set would be produced. Alas, the real world rarely grants such a straightforward process.
