Enterprise Vault (EV) Deployment and Upgrades

A modern, supportable EV environment, designed correctly from day one.

Why you need expert deployment or upgrades

Enterprise Vault is powerful, but only when it’s implemented properly.  If your environment was built years ago or upgraded incrementally, hidden inefficiencies and risks are likely holding you back.

Poor storage design. Fragmented indexes. Unsupported versions. Complex policies. 

These issues quietly impact performance, compliance and reliability.  When you modernise your EV platform properly, everything runs smoother and stays supportable.

Why Now?

You’re probably facing one or more of these:

    • Unsupported EV versions
    • SQL end-of-life
    • Increasing discovery workloads
    • Security and audit requirements
    • A move to Microsoft 365
    • Pressure to reduce operational risk

Upgrading isn’t just maintenance anymore, it’s risk reduction.

What Happens with Legacy Environments

Without modernisation, you’ll likely experience:

    • Risky or failed upgrades
    • Extended downtime
    • Compliance exposure
    • Slower archiving and discovery
    • Higher support costs
    • Migration blockers

Legacy complexity compounds over time.

What You Gain From a Modern Deployment

You get:

    • A clean, supportable architecture
    • Improved performance and stability
    • Lower operational risk
    • Clear governance and retention alignment
    • Future readiness for cloud or migration
    • Predictable, fixed-price delivery

Simply put fewer surprises, better outcomes.
