Get the most of your IT investments

IMPLEMENT SAP DATA AND DOCUMENT ARCHIVING:

Enterprises invest a significant chunk of their IT investments inSAP applications. In a three to five year timeframe, organizations typically see a 3 to 5x growth in the size of their data and the complexity of theirpaper based processes. This leads to not only a significant increase in the cost of administration and operation of the IT environment, but also has fardeeper implication in terms of risks and costs associated with compliance.Organizational data and documents need to betamper proof and follow retention periods as laid down by regulatory bodiesgoverning your industry. In the case of several large groups, applications havebeen migrated to the new SAP environment, but legacy systems are kept alive dueto the retention requirements for historic data, leading to a significantincrease in the cost of maintenance and operation.
