Google email archiving service extends for upto decade
Are you using Google Message Discovery? If yes then Google has planned something really special for you. Google has decided to extend its email archiving service for 10 years. It has also decided the service cost. When the service was launched in this April, it charged each user $25 per year and provided the anti-spam and antivirus service. Though it will still offer the same for a year at the same or reduced cost, but according to the new plans now it will hold e-mail for up to a decade charging each user $45 per year. Apart from the archiving and email searching this service package will also include the security service for e-mail. So it’s going to be a good deal as according to the Google’s enterprise blog it will cost them $200 per year per user for on-premise security and archiving software and hardware. The Google hosted e-mail archiving service has a good hold on the market as it supports Microsoft’s Exchange and IBM’s Lotus Domino e-mail systems. Moreover, most of the businesses today are subscribing these services. It has well enough competition in the market against the Symantec’s MessageLabs. So it would be great to watch the prices put by these enterprises. Service cost may vary from region to region.
