5. • Teams spread across 11 manufacturing sites
• Team members need to interact for new
projects, for management systems without

• Need to consolidate information
• Ensure that all transactions are accounted
• All Data is saved for future reference
Business As Usual

6. Improved Collaboration, Data safety & Productivity
• Multi-location collaboration tool enabling easy exchange of data
and information across 11 Locations
• Consolidation of information to ensure that all transactions are
accounted and data is saved for future reference
• Solutions to reduce our expenses on data backup and to have data
stored away from the main server
The Requirement

7. What Was:
• In premise mail server with NAS storage
• Prolonged power cuts beyond 8 hours meant UPS exhaustion and downtime
First step into the cloud
• Move mailing to the cloud and retire in premise mail server
• For over 5 years now, we have had reliable, secure communication amongst our team members
The Choice

8. Next set of challenges
• Emails were stored on a NAS, which was filling up rapidly
• Making a keep or delete decision for email was difficult, stressful and time consuming
• Faced with a decision to buy a new storage to augment capacity.
• Despite assurances that we had a backup on the NAS the retrieval process was time consuming
and so most usrs wanted to have an desktop email solution to ensure their emails were
accessible
Next step into the cloud
• Vaultastic on cloud was the solution we were looking
• As the emails get backed up automatically to Vaultastic:
• Users do not have to worry about loss of their data,
• Users do not need to have to backup mail locally
• Users can freely delete mail from the mailbox without any risk
The Choice

9. By taking a cloud solution like Vaultastic we have saved 7 Lakhs on:
• Adding another storage at the cost of 2 lakhs
• Additional server as an email server at the cost of 75-80000
• Other software, battery backup and space 60000
• Person to maintain email services in addition to the service provider 240000/ year
• Risk of loosing data due to sudden surges in power or other hazards
The Benefit
