Saving E-Mails Saves Face

Compiled ByTraci Purdum Managing e-mails as documents of record may help companies in cases of litigation. However, there are certain challenges that businesses face regarding business and internal e-mail. To address those challenges, MDY Advanced Technologies Inc., a Fairlawn, N.J.-based provider of records, documents and knowledge management solutions, offers a new white paper on the subject and its FileSurf Records Management Software. With the company's FileSurf software, businesses can track, manage and apply consistent retention schedules to e-mails, as well as physical and electronic files. "This eliminates the problem of incorrect or arbitrary destruction of documents and may save a firm and its clients from potential public embarrassment," says Galina Datskovsky, CEO, MDY. The software, which features drop-and-drag integration with Microsoft Outlook, Novell Groupwise and Lotus Notes, includes online box and file requests, retention scheduling, a centralized on-hold feature and universal document content and metadata search.
