SHAREPOINT ONLINE ARCHIVING

SharePoint Online Archiving

Shrink your SharePoint storage costs

Is your SharePoint Online default quota being eaten up by increased remote sharing, Teams video recordings and retention policies?

By archiving SharePoint to lower cost Azure storage, you can shrink your storage costs by up to one tenth in comparison to Microsoft overage charges.

For example, storing 500TB was going to cost £410,000 p.a. in SharePoint Online. It was < £63,000 p.a. to store in our solution.

Get in touch with your predicted storage volumes and we’ll provide comparative pricing.
