Case Study: Clover achieves secure, seamless Office 365 migration with Mimecast

Clover de-risks Office 365 migration and rejects 80,000 emails a day with Mimecast

Clover Industries, a major South African retail and consumer goods company, faced significant challenges managing its on-premises email infrastructure, including capacity planning issues, a high cost of ownership, and the difficulty of defending against evolving email threats. Prior to a planned migration to Microsoft Office 365, their compliance team identified risks around data loss, security, archiving, and guaranteed availability that needed to be mitigated. They turned to their existing vendor, Mimecast, to help de-risk the project.

Mimecast provided a unified email management solution that worked seamlessly with Office 365. The implementation enabled a controlled, site-by-site migration and delivered a multi-layered security approach, blocking thousands of malicious emails and attachments daily. The solution resulted in major cost savings, eliminated the need for a dedicated email support team, and provided users with a vastly improved experience, including bottomless mailboxes and instant access to a secure cloud archive. Mimecast ensured a perfect fit for Clover's cloud environment.
