Ian Bugeja, Product Manager for GFI 
MailArchiver, talks about today’s release and what’s new in GFI MailArchiver.
Q: How do you feel about this new release?
I am very excited about this release. We have introduced some major requested features, particularly the role-based access. Now admins can give rights to the various GFI MailArchiver features based on the user’s responsibilities in the organization.
With the Archive Assistant importing emails is much easier for admins – they can import emails and clean up the exchange mailboxes within a few clicks. No more time spent collecting PSTs and manually exporting the PST files to import them in GFI MailArchiver or creating complex retention rules on Microsoft Exchange to clean up the mailboxes.
Q: What’s new in GFI MailArchiver 2013?
GFI MailArchiver now provides managers with the ability to better understand employee email habits and identify their email usage personality types.
Business intelligence and other valuable insights gleaned from email with GFI MailArchiver help managers evaluate job performance, boost productivity, and encourage efficient communications practices.
The latest version of GFI MailArchiver ranks workers according to who uses email the most often, who responds to emails the fastest, and who communicates with the greatest number of recipients. In addition, GFI MailArchiver now identifies top keywords that are frequently used and measures positive and negative email sentiment across the organization, providing managers with valuable insight into what is driving employee and customer email usage.
Q: What about the businesses that are already using the previous versions on GFI MailArchiver? Can these be upgraded?
Businesses using older versions of GFI MailArchiver can easily migrate to the latest version. We always make it a point to keep supporting older archive stores so all it takes is upgrading to GFI MailArchiver 2013 and migration will be done automatically – easy!
