Case Study

An electronics manufacturer reduced data loss risks and made employee handovers easier with automated archiving

Vaultastic automated backups from Microsoft 365 into a secure, independent archive, preserved ex-employee data in a searchable state, and simplified discovery for smooth transitions.

About the Company

Location: N/A
Industry: Electronics manufacturing
Users: 150+
Data volume: 2TB+
Operations: Mid-sized manufacturing enterprise with distributed teams
Existing systems: Microsoft 365

Why now?

As teams scaled and volumes of data grew, it created data retention challenges, putting operational continuity and data access at risk.

The Difference Vaultastic Made

Before Vaultastic

  • Critical information and ex-employee data were at constant risk of loss
  • Historical records were scattered and IT spent hours retrieving them
  • Inactive data kept piling up, driving storage costs higher

After Vaultastic

  • Business data was protected, retained securely, and always accessible when needed
  • Older data was organized in one place, making discovery faster and reducing IT workload
  • Long-term storage became cost-efficient and predictable

Lack of centralized oversight was exposing the business to risk

Constant risk of data loss from accidental deletions, malicious activity, or ransomware

Critical emails and archives were hard to locate, slowing audits and business processes

Ex-employee records were scattered across accounts, making data retention unreliable and handovers difficult

Rising storage costs from inactive mail archives clogged primary systems

Heavy IT effort was required for manual recovery and handovers

Behind the results: How targeted implementation drove business-level change

Migrated legacy data to a centralized store, eliminating fragmented information record-keeping and making information readily accessible

What changed on the ground         What it meant for the business
Active Microsoft 365 emails were archived automatically into a secure store Reduced risk of email loss and improved compliance confidence through continuous protection

 

Ex-employee mailboxes were preserved in a centralized, searchable archive Smoother role transitions without delays, boosting continuity and productivity

 

Historical records were migrated into one unified repository Faster audits and investigations, saving significant time and effort

 

Storage was shifted to elastic, tiered cloud archives Lower long-term storage costs while ensuring durability and high availability

 

eDiscovery tools enabled quick location and retrieval of information Improved decision-making speed and reduced IT dependency with faster access to records

 

Why Vaultastic was the right fit

These results were made possible by Vaultastic’s secure and auto-scale platform, designed to handle high-volume information archival, helping
create a scalable repository of information records and assets.

Always-on archiving ensured tamper-proof, independent records

The unified cloud archive consolidated active and legacy PST data into one searchable repository

Deep eDiscovery enabled precise retrieval in seconds, reducing delays in audits and investigations

Elastic storage tiers kept long-term costs predictable and scalable, without the need for manual housekeeping
