The following sections outline how Sonasofts email archiving software is differentiated in the market place when compared to other competitive solutions.
Sonasoft provides separate business continuity applications that can become a fully integrated solution that includes Backup, Disaster Recovery, Replication, and Archiving all while being server agnostic.

Sonasoft's technology and products are designed from the ground up for the SMB who is using the Windows operating system. When compared to the product offerings of the main competitors that were built with the larger enterprise in mind, Sonasoft's email archiving solutions work much better in an SMB environment.
As a security measure and in order to comply with legal and statutory requirements, an organization can impose certain restrictions on internal and external email communication. Sonasoft is one of the few archiving solutions for the SMB that actually implements this important feature by automatically flagging messages that appear to violate such a policy.
There are many benefits to e-mail archiving and they are listed below:
The first benefit is to aid the SMB in meeting legal requirements: Compliance to regulatory requirements such as Sarbanes Oxley, HIPAA, SEC 17a-4 and the Patriot Act (to name just a few). All these legal requirements specify how to manage the email lifecycle: which emails to keep and for how long, and which emails to dispose of and when. In the case of legal action the email archive should be fully indexed and searchable, so that that retrieving emails is done as efficiently as possible. This saves SMBs from paying costly lawyer fees for manual searching of printed e-mails.
A second benefit is improved system performance and reduced costs. When e-mails are archived, they are removed from a central e-mail server. Mail box sizes decrease which results in the need for less expensive disk storage and reduced back-up and restore times. There is also quicker access to the now smaller mailboxes and better protection of e-mails in the case of an outage or maintenance window.
