Lotus Notes Archiving
Crown’s archiving services provide you with the right solution, whether you will continue to make backups of Lotus Notes data or completely decomission your Lotus Notes installation. The information stored in Lotus Notes should be archived to Content Server for increased security, retention management, and efficiency.

The archiving process will help develop an accurate understanding of the information that resides in Lotus Notes, and will improve your ability to manage and control that information.

To move from Lotus Notes to Content Server, it is necessary to deploy EMC Content Sever in advance. Deploying Content Server includes installation, configuration to your enterprise
needs, and integration with the rest of your IT infrastructure. As part of the deployment services, Crown will identify your business and technology needs, and deploy Content Server efficiently to provide your business with the highest strategic value.
