If you’ve ever tried to move years of archived email or legacy data, you know it’s rarely simple. That’s why Bluesource built ArchiveMASHTM, a second-generation migration platform designed to make data transfers fast, secure, and defensible, with minimal disruption to your users. This is how we do it:
- Speed and efficiency: Multi-threaded tasking, direct platform conversions and constant data movement until everything is safely in its new home.
- Ready for Compliance: Our product keeps a full chain of custody, tracking every message, metadata field and exception for reporting that is second to none.
- Defensible: If you need to, our migration team may provide you documents or expert witness to back up the process.
- Clear and adjustable: You can filter by date range or custodian, and you will get the reports during the project in real time.
- We offer a zero-risk start: Every engagement begins with a non-obligational setup so you can see how well it works before you commit.
Built by the same experts who’ve modernized archives for highly regulated industries over two decades, ArchiveMASH lets you retire legacy systems and move forward—on your terms.
Archive-First Strategy
A majority of enterprise data is never used, just stored, yet it drives up storage, backup, and licensing costs. By archiving inactive data early, before provisioning, migrations, or renewals, companies can cut cloud and SaaS expenses, avoid unnecessary upgrades, and free up budget for innovation. This archive-first approach turns archiving into a smart cost-control tool, improves system performance, and reduces risk, making infrastructure more efficient and future-ready.
According to Gartner®, companies can “Accelerate digital innovation and reduce transformation risk through archive-first readiness, by systematically decoupling essential data from legacy and inactive assets, before migrations or SaaS transitions” to improve migration efficiency.
