Office 365 Email Archiving: Secure, Compliant, and Cost-Effective with Solix
Email archiving is a critical component of modern Office 365 environments. As organizations rely on email for daily operations, legal documentation, and regulatory compliance, the ability to securely retain and retrieve email data becomes essential. Learn how to set up email archiving for Office 365.
Office 365 email archiving is designed to preserve business communications for long-term retention, eDiscovery, and compliance. However, not all archiving solutions deliver the same value or cost efficiency.
This is where Solix Email Archiving stands apart.
Office 365 Email Archiving Pricing Comparison
One of the biggest differentiators in the email archiving market is cost. Many providers charge premium prices for basic archiving functionality, especially at enterprise scale.
Email Archiving Pricing Comparison (Per User / Per Month)
| Provider | Starting Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Solix | $7 | Flat, transparent pricing with enterprise features |
| Mimecast | $12-$18 | Often bundled, pricing increases with add-ons |
| Proofpoint | $10-$20+ | Premium pricing, complex licensing |
| Barracuda | $9–$15 | Tiered plans, feature limitations |
| Smarsh | $15–$25+ | High cost, compliance-focused vertical pricing |
Key takeaway: Solix delivers full Office 365 email archiving capabilities at a significantly lower cost, without sacrificing compliance, security, or performance.
What Is Office 365 Email Archiving and Why It Matters
Office 365 email archiving is the process of capturing, indexing, and storing email communications in a secure, tamper-proof repository. A proper archiving solution ensures:
- Long-term retention of email data
- Regulatory compliance and legal hold support
- Fast and accurate eDiscovery
- Reduced mailbox storage costs
- Protection against accidental or malicious deletion
Without an enterprise-grade Office 365 archiving solution, organizations risk losing critical data, failing audits, or spending excessive time and money on legal discovery.
Real-World Scenario: Why Enterprise Email Archiving Is Essential
Imagine a company facing litigation that requires reviewing several years of Office 365 email correspondence. Without centralized email archiving, IT teams must manually search mailboxes, restore backups, or process PST files.
With Solix Email Archiving, emails are already indexed, searchable, and preserved under policy. Legal teams can retrieve required communications in minutes instead of weeks, significantly reducing legal risk and operational cost.
