After migrating to Exchange 2010 many organizations want to archive their PST files in new archive mailboxes, and at last, remove PST files from their network.

The problem is that the standard tool provided with Exchange 2010 does the job only-partially as it doesn't provide a way to collect all PST files across your corporate network. Also, it doesn't include any post-archiving actions like removing the PST files from user's profile or mark them as read-only.

PSTStation helps organizations run a full archiving process on PST files with a unique tool that includes a search engine to locate PST files over the network, a native archive connector to Exchange 2010 and a job engine for post-actions on PST files.

With PSTStation Corporate®, you will:

• locate PST files stored on your network wherever they are stored
• select emails/folders directly in the source PST files
• archive to Exchange 2010 24/7
• remove PST file from user's profile or mark as read-only

Because our archiving jobs are running in the background even if Outlook is open, organizations can run their archiving process during or after business hours.

Compared to other tools, using PSTStation dramatically reduce the timeframe of your archiving project.

With PSTStation Corporate®, you only need to choose the users or the computers you want to process and configure your own scheduling.

PSTStation Corporate® will automatically do the rest of the job like getting the list of PST files to be archived, reconcile the owner of the PST files with the user in Exchange 2010 and migrate emails and other items in user's standard or archive Exchange mailbox.

Thanks to its flow control capabilities, PSTStation Corporate® can manage PST archiving through low bandwidth networks.

Managers can now control the bandwidth usage between the remote locations and the data center, avoiding timeouts as well as bandwidth overloads.

PSTStation Corporate® includes the most common post-actions you need to take on your PST files once they have been archived. For instance, you can disconnect the PST files from user's Outlook profiles, mark them as read-only or remove archive emails from PST files and compress them.

Backup Microsoft Outlook^® PST files is really a painful job because these files can be locked by Outlook^® and standard backup solutions back up each time the whole file even if there is no new messages stored in it.

PSTStation Corporate^® makes PST backup very much easier as it helps IT administrators to back up from a central point any PST files stored on a remote workstation, a file share server or a laptop.

Backup can be incremental with backup of new messages only, reducing dramatically the volume of daily backed up data.

It can be run even if Outlook^® is opened on remote workstation or laptop and then eliminate the need of a backup window time.

Destination backup PSTs can be stored locally to PSTStation Corporate^® server or a NAS.

PSTStation Corporate^® 3.2 helps organizations to archive their Outlook^® PST files in a third party storage on which they can run their compliance policies as well as eDiscovery searches.

PSTStation Corporate^® scans and detects any PST files stored on a workstation, a file share server or a laptop and allows organizations to define a selective or bulk job to archive the content in M+Archive^® server.

Users can then access their archived messages through Exchange Outlook Web Access or by using their standalone MA Web Personal Viewer.

PSTStation Corporate^® includes the following facilities :

• selective or bulk ingestion of PSTs to archive,
• users, servers or individual PST selection,
• content filtering based on subject, recipients, originator, type of email,
• include/exclude folders to archive,
• automatic reconciliation of PSTs with Exchange users,
• pre-calculation of number/volume of PSTs to archive,
• full-text indexing of PST content,
• attachments deduplication in archives
• PST file detach from Outlook profile once archived

PSTStation Corporate^® has been especially designed to manage thousands of PSTs and tons of messages as well as to process the PST even if Outlook^® is in use on a remote computer.

Today, many organizations do not include Outlook^® PSTs in their email compliance policies because these files are too numerous and out of control from IT departments. Likewise, when an eDiscovery has to be run throughout the company, including PST in the process is very often impossible within the legal period allowed to issue the results.

PSTStation Corporate^® v3 allows organizations to define groups of users whose PSTs can be analyzed. When connected to M+Analytics, IT managers will be able to locate these PSTs, to regularly retrieve new content and make it available for any compliance officer or legal advisor.

PSTStation Corporate^® v3 also speeds eDiscovery process by allowing managers to quickly filter PSTs whose content satisfies the search criteria. This avoids retrieving all PST content in a third repository before running any searches.

Once identified, PST content is archived and held in M+A servers to be further analyzed by legal advisors through M+Analytics.

Once archived, the PST size on remote computers can be locked, preventing users from storing any new items in their PSTs.

One way to reduce PST storage is to compact your PSTs frequently to recover space from deleted items. This action must be run by the user on his workstation, but is not user friendly and can be time consuming as it freezes the application.

By running PSTStation Corporate^® , organizations will reduce the global size for all their PSTs and then, will consume less storage.

With PSTStation Corporate^®, compaction job, administrator can run this task from a central location on user's PSTs and without any user action.

PSTStation Corporate^® compaction is based on the standard Outlook^® compaction process and will preserve 100% of the integrity of the PST files.

• Reduce PSTs' size by recovering unused space
• Based on standard Outlook compaction to avoid risk of corruption
• No end-user action needed
• Support Outlook 2000, XP, 2003/7 and 2010 (32bits)

PSTs that become too big or oversized can become instable and lead to loss of data.
The best way to avoid this is to often check PST's size, warn users when it comes over a non-acceptable limit to let users take appropriate actions like split, delete or move content in another PST file.

Thanks to PSTStation Corporate's Monitoring job, IT administrators can now simplify PSTs monitoring by running a regular size checking on remote PSTs wherever they are stored. If a PST oversizes, PSTStation Corporate^® automatically notifies owner's PST that he must take appropriate actions. It can also notify any group of administrators that some PSTs have reached their maximum allowed size.

• Avoid loss of data by taking actions before PSTs oversize and become corrupted
• Limits can be defined either individually or by group of users
• Users' notifications can be customized with your organization's phone numbers, URL or signatures
• No end-user action needed
• Support Outlook 2000, XP, 2003/7 and 2010 (32bits)

You planned to take actions to best manage PSTs inside your organization ? Or you begin a migration or archiving project and you decide to ingest PST's content in your new mailboxes or an external archiving repository ?
But before running any actions on these PSTs, you need to know each PST's owner, if the PST is in-use in an Outlook^® profile or which PST is in default Outlook^® profile on remote computer ?

Thanks to PSTStation Corporate^® scan feature, IT administrators can detect all PSTs stored on workstations, laptops or corporate shared file servers.
PSTStation Corporate can detect disconnected PSTs (ie not registered in a live Outlook^® profile) as well as reconcile any lost&found PSTs stored on a file share server with its original owner.
Advanced scan allows also administrators to find empty or broken files as well as hidden PST files. With "Direct File Access", you can now scan 200 GB of PST files in less than 1 hour through your corporate network.

• Detection of all PSTs stored on workstations, laptops or corporate shared file servers
• Scans are run from a central location
• High speed scan with more than 200 GB scanned in less than one hour
• Detection of disconnected PST files
• Find empty or broken files as well as hidden PST files
• Reconcile orphaned PSTs (not registered in a live Outlook^® profile) with its original owner

PSTs are displayed through a rich GUI where an IT administrator can do filtering, arrange his own custom view and export list of PSTs to Microsoft Excel.

PSTStation Corporate^® includes a rich report library that displays at a glance all information on PSTs detected. Administrators can see how many PST files are stored on workstations and/or corporate file servers, how many disconnected PST files exist on each server, etc...

Report Center has been especially designed for your IT manager to help him to get a quick view of PST's distribution inside your organization.

• PST's distribution and ownership in less than one hour
• No additional scripts to develop
• No software to install on workstations, laptops or file share servers
• Full support of roaming profiles
• Support Outlook 2000, XP, 2003/7 and 2010 (32bits)

Administrators can now change the location of PSTs files when they change hardware storage, for instance to use low cost disk arrays. As it includes a built-in and automatic update of the remote Outlook^® profile, this feature is the best way to rearrange and optimize PST storage without adding extra heavy manual work to update remote Outlook^® profiles.

• Rearrange and optimize PST storage without adding extra heavy manual work to update remote Outlook^® profiles
• Move PSTs from one server to another
• Move PSTs from local drives to a shared file server
• Move back PSTs from a shared file server to a local drive (used to come back in Microsoft official supported configuration)
• The update of remote Outlook^® profiles can also be activated by itself, enabling for instance to change a mapped drive in its UNC path
