Case Study: Systems integrator ARHD cuts email retrieval from days to seconds with Mimecast

Systems Integrator ARHD turns to Mimecast to automate email archiving for clients

ARHD, an outsourced IT firm since 2000 that supports U.S. clients (notably financial services and law firms), faced growing pain from exploding email volumes and costly, cumbersome in‑house archiving. Clients required always-on retention and frequent eDiscovery searches, which were slow, expensive, and unreliable—sometimes taking days and costing thousands of dollars—so ARHD sought a more affordable, comprehensive solution.

ARHD deployed Mimecast’s cloud-based SaaS suite for integrated archiving, eDiscovery, business continuity, and anti-spam/antivirus. The change cut retrieval times from days to seconds, slashed storage and server costs, consolidated multiple tools into one offering, blocked email threats at the gateway, and delivered continuous email uptime—saving clients money and generating referrals and new business for ARHD.
