Email is an indispensable communication tool for business.
Email allows for quick and efficient communication across departments, locations, and time zones, facilitating collaboration and decision-making. Additionally, email provides a permanent record of communications that can be easily referenced and searched, enabling businesses to maintain accurate records and comply with regulatory requirements. In many cases it is just as important a record as any other document your organization manages, and it should be managed in the same way.
Therefore’s selection of solutions make email more secure, traceable, and accessible. Leveraging email information is complicated in that it is often contained in different mailboxes of multiple employees throughout an organization. Therefore™ gives you the tools to manage your email information in an efficient manner, securely back up critical correspondence, and link emails to relevant projects and retention schedules. Boost your productivity, security and compliance with email management tools from Therefore™!
