Case Study: TMP Worldwide achieves £40,000+ annual cost savings and resilient cloud-based email continuity with Mimecast

TMP Worldwide Significant cost savings delivered by an innovative internal IT team

TMP Worldwide, a recruitment advertising and communications agency with around 300 UK users plus a Dublin office, left with a much smaller IT team after a management buyout. Heavily dependent on email for client communication and tight deadlines, the company was struggling with uncontrolled mailbox growth, rising backup costs and inadequate continuity, archiving and disaster-recovery capabilities that their lean team could not sustainably support.

Working with supplier Kelway, TMP adopted Mimecast’s cloud-based integrated archiving, continuity and security solution to replace in‑house Exchange management. Mimecast provided tamper‑proof UK-hosted archives with rapid search-and-restore, guaranteed email availability and audit trails, helped avert an Exchange outage, simplified administration, improved security, and delivered more than £40,000 in annual overhead savings.
