Drivers for the infrastructure

Email has become mission critical in many organisations Email represents an increasing risk to the organisation

Viruses, worms, Spam, Trojan horses, phishing, data leaks…. Increasing regulations and legislation Business relationships increasingly complex Increasingly litigious society

But managing this infrastructure isn’t your core business

….it’s ours

True cost of email• Upfront capital outlay• Annual maintenance

– Licence maintenance– Hardware refresh & maintenance– Multiple service & support contracts

• Human resources– IT Staff: highly administrative, breadth of skill required, time costly to manage– Employees: Productivity impact

• Threat model changing– Unplanned technology purchases

• Email is a business critical application yet adds no competitive advantage

Issues with traditional infrastructures Capital expenditure Overlaps and gaps between point product coverage Need to maintain multiple skill sets for all the point products Each product has its own administration and reporting interface Each point product acts on email in isolation

Weak evidential chains-of-custody Each point hardware product has a lifespan of only 3 – 5 years

Constant risky migrations Software point products require constant patching and upgrades Each point product uses its own high availability configuration Users need training on multiple point products

Very expensiveVery complex

Software virtualisation

Swaps hardware complexity for software complexity

What our customer’s say ...“Mimecast effectively replaces four different products for us. It will also help us to

finally solve the problem of ensuring legitimate emails aren't blocked while freeing up our IT staff's valuable time from sifting through quarantine folders.” Jan Durant, Head of IT, Lewis Silkin

"Avoiding an accumulation of IT point solutions is a key driver for us. Ongoing email management pressures were forcing us to consider upgrades and extensions to our email systems. By switching to Mimecast we have achieved our aims at a fraction of the cost of the alternatives." David Peters, Finance & Admin Director, Odgers, Ray & Berndtson.

"The incumbent archival server was originally due to last for five years but - due to the magnitude and growth of email traffic - we have outgrown it in just two years. The Mimecast system allows us to offload all the hassle of capacity planning for the next ten years of storage without sacrificing any of the control; as we can search, retrieve and manage all emails from our desktop.” Tim Hyman, IT Director, Taylor Wessing

“We are delighted with Mimecast and have calculated a 100% ROI in less than 100 days. This is one of the best technology purchases we have made in years. Mimecast’s product, support and service are first class.” Chris Petrie, IT Director, Stephenson Harwood

“By moving to an online service, we are able to remove the burden of managing hardware and software onsite. We have freed up time and resource that had been locked in battle with spammers.” Nathan Hayes, Osborne Clarke
