GWAVA Announces Retain for Social Media Archiving

MONTREAL--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GWAVA announces the release of Retain Unified Archiving for Social Messaging. Retain Social is a key element to the GWAVA Unified Archiving Solution. With Retain Social, organizations can now securely archive incoming and outgoing communication from Twitter and Facebook. This archived data can be instantly searched, retrieved, and published from one unified archive.

?In today?s regulatory environment, we need to change our way of thinking. Organizations are utilizing many different collaboration tools alongside traditional email and must expand their archiving capabilities to include all forms of electronic communication?

Retain Social captures all Facebook wall posts, status updates, messages, friend requests, likes and events, in addition to Twitter direct messages and posts (tweets). Retain Social works seamlessly within the existing Retain archiving system, where all multi-platform messaging data, including email and social media, is archived into one unified database. By using the Retain solution, organizations have the ability to search, publish and perform eDiscovery from one central location. End users and administrators need only search one database through the web access archive viewer to find the messages they are looking for. Most importantly, Retain protects an organization?s messages from deletion, to maintain compliance with retention and open records laws.

?In today?s regulatory environment, we need to change our way of thinking. Organizations are utilizing many different collaboration tools alongside traditional email and must expand their archiving capabilities to include all forms of electronic communication,? states Ken Muir, CEO of GWAVA. ?GWAVA has expanded its Retain unified archiving suite to archive both traditional email platforms, but also social media and will continue to expand to text and IM communications to meet the growing demands on regulated organizations.?

Retain Unified Archiving provides multi-platform unified message archiving, eDiscovery, and publishing for organizations looking to reduce costs, manage complexity, mitigate risk on-prem or in the cloud. Retain enables organizations to seamlessly archive a single or mixed messaging platform environment, running Microsoft Exchange, Office 365, Live@EDU, and GroupWise in addition to Facebook and Twitter social media messaging.
