4 Product management and other features GFI MailArchiver 6.0 Waterford Technologies MailMeter Archive Configuration interface type Web-based Web-based Active directory group-based full access Active Directory users/groups-based access control alert notifications Sends scheduled audit reports r GFI MailArchiver is a simple, cost-effective, and time-efficient archiving solution that eliminates the dependence on PST files and offers excellent support for archiving, searching and auditing requirements. A simple high-level comparison between the key features of GFI MailArchiver and Waterford Technologies MailMeter Archive revealed the following differences: GFI MailArchiver can be integrated with several servers and platforms On which servers and platforms can I use GFI MailArchiver? GFI MailArchiver can be easily integrated with Microsoft Exchange Server 2000, 2003, 2007 and It does not require a dedicated machine and can be installed on the same machine that is being used as the mail server. This is particularly beneficial for small businesses, as it eliminates the need to purchase and maintain different servers. In addition, GFI MailArchiver supports distributed installation for load sharing, thus addressing the requirements of large organizations. It can also archive from multiple Exchange Servers at the same time. While Waterford Technologies MailMeter Archive can also be integrated with Microsoft Exchange Server 2000, 2003 and 2007, it requires a dedicated machine for installation. GFI MailArchiver is also compatible with Microsoft Windows Server 2000, 2003 and GFI MailArchiver ensures smooth functionality of the Exchange Server Does my archiving solution affect the functionality of the Exchange Server? GFI MailArchiver does not affect Exchange Server functionality in any way. When archiving, GFI MailArchiver does not create any links to the or attachments. A copy of the is archived intact through journaling. Waterford Technologies MailMeter Archive, on the other hand, replaces the attachment with a link, which may affect the functionality of the Exchange Server. In these cases, the archiving server and the Exchange Server are dependent on each other; hence if one server is experiencing downtime, the other is affected. GFI MailArchiver provides robust backend storage What kind of backend storage is supported by GFI MailArchiver? Besides Microsoft SQL Server and SQL Express, GFI MailArchiver can be integrated with the Firebird database. Firebird is the default, in-built database for GFI MailArchiver and does not require any additional license costs. The Firebird alternative is best suited for small businesses, where traffic is low. GFI MailArchiver also supports all UNC-based storage managers, such as QStar and IBM Tivoli. On the other hand, Waterford Technologies MailMeter Archive can only be integrated with MS SQL for backend storage. 4

5 GFI MailArchiver offers uninterrupted archiving during backup Will my backup activity affect the archiving process? GFI MailArchiver fully supports the Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (MS VSS) feature for the online backup of archives. This feature enables GFI MailArchiver to backup archives without stopping the normal archiving activity. On the other hand, Waterford Technologies MailMeter does not support this feature and necessitates periodic halts in the archiving process to perform backups. GFI MailArchiver allows users to classify their s Can I classify my s by defining my own categories? GFI MailArchiver facilitates efficient management of s by allowing both the administrator and the user to classify s by defining labels. While the administrator can enforce organization-level classification, users can also classify s in self-defined categories. This feature provides more flexibility and control to the user. In addition, labels also help in refining search results and meeting compliance requirements. Waterford Technologies MailMeter Archive requires an add-on module, MailMeter Investigate, to tag s. This module allows users to classify s only in pre-defined default categories. GFI MailArchiver dynamically updates search results Can my archiving solution dynamically update search results? GFI MailArchiver allows users to save search results in the form of Search Folders. A Search Folder stores the search query, allowing users to modify or delete Search Folders safely and without affecting the archived s. When a user accesses the search folder, the search query stored is executed again thus displaying all the s that meet the conditions specified by the user. Waterford Technologies MailMeter Archive only allows users to save search results in a Workbook. GFI MailArchiver provides User Interaction and Database Activity Auditing What mechanisms are available for auditing purposes? GFI MailArchiver provides two types of auditing: User Interaction Auditing and Database Activity Auditing. User Interaction Auditing records all user activities in the form of a report, i.e., User Audit Trail. It records all activities of users when they browse or search through archives using the Web interface. Database Activity Auditing tracks all the changes made to the database, such as configuration management, access control and retention policies. The auditing reports serve as a useful resource during audits, system performance monitoring, and in certain cases for regulatory compliance. GFI MailArchiver offers a multi-lingual interface Does my archiving solution offer support for languages other than English? A truly universal archiving solution, GFI MailArchiver offers a multi-lingual interface. It supports localization in several languages including English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Russian, Spanish, Czech, Arabic, Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese. It allows users to set their preferred language as the default language for their web interface. GFI MailArchiver ensures legal compliance Does my archiving solution ensure legal compliance? GFI MailArchiver does not allow users to modify archived mails. This helps to ascertain the integrity, and hence the original content of the mail for compliance purposes. 5

6 GFI MailArchiver also helps organizations to meet regulatory compliance with, for example, the Sarbanes- Oxley Act 2002, E-Comm Act 2000, BS7799-2:2002, the Enterprise Act 2002, and Decreto del Presidente del Consiglio dei Ministri (8 February 1999). GFI MailArchiver does not require additional training Do I need additional training to use this product? No additional end user or administration training is required for using and maintaining GFI MailArchiver. It is a user-friendly yet technically robust product. 6
