Overview
Vaultastic is a cloud-based enterprise information archival and management solution. Vaultastic has three stores into which your data can be archived. These are the Active Store used to archive email data which is required to be accessed frequently and quickly. The Vaultastic Open Store is where you can preserve data in files which is accessed infrequently. The third store is the Live Store, where you can archive data from helpdesk systems, CRM systems, website forms, and other sources. The Live Store as the name suggests allows you to collaborate on the data within it.
Live Store
The Live Store of Vaultastic is powered by Ideolve.
The contents of the Live Store are notes in workspaces. Each workspace corresponds to a source of data. These notes are created by the live archiving from systems such as a helpdesk, CRM, etc. The contents of Live Store are searchable using keywords and can be tagged. Admins can invite users to workspaces. Invitees can search through, download and view the archive data. Invitees can also collaborate on the content.
Active Store
The contents of the Active Store are emails that are searchable and accessible via the eDiscovery interface of Vaultastic. The Active Store is organized in different Vaults corresponding to mailboxes on the primary email domain.
Open Store
The contents of the Open Store are files. The contents of the Open Store are searchable using the file names using the Open Storage Application.
