Neocol, a leading ECM solutions provider today announced the launch of a packaged e-mail archive solution for the UK SMB market.

With ever expanding message stores and growing concern around regulation and compliance, e-mail archiving is becoming a necessity not a luxury. Typically, the SMB market has found the usual combination of software licenses, dedicated hardware and professional services too expensive to warrant such an investment.

Neocol's proposition runs on high-powered IBM xSeries servers and supports both Microsoft Exchange and Lotus Notes platforms. The packaged bundle, based on IBM's award winning Content Manager and CommonStore products will help organisations to remove the load on native messaging servers and to adhere with prudent e-mail retention regulations.

Neocol already has experienced significant interest and expects great demand for this innovative solution. The bundle, which includes all hardware, software and services is scalable anywhere from 100-1000 users and can be deployed in as little as one day!
