Microsoft Exchange Online Archiving vs. OpenText Core Business Communication Archive

Microsoft has a variety of models and tiers available to choose from. Depending on the nature of your firm, you should seek the advice of a specialist. Also, if you're like most people and use Microsoft Office, ask about it. Having the ability to collaborate online while still saving your documents to SharePoint increases your overall productivity.

Well suited in scenarios where you have a large amount of incoming mails, worry of accidental deletion, and require retention of data from sources, especially with Microsoft Teams. You will have to get used to the complex search features to make full use of Zix capabilities though. If you have a basic usage of emails and your email client already provides these features, then Zix wouldn't be of much use for the expense it incurs.

Zix Information Archiving (ZixArchive) is fairly 1:1 with these solutions except for prior data not uploading. Indexing metadata for searches is on point and the fields function as you'd expect and clearly labeled. The only gotcha I typically hit in searching is I always hit enter after typing the email address in the search field, which presents me with a new line instead of moving to the next field--it's muscle memory and I understand the reasoning--it just doesn't fit my flow, as typically I only search for one email address per field.
