Review feature as part of Enterprise Vault Discovery Accelerator, users are
able to analyze and filter search results to quickly drill down to the most
relevant content with a few simple clicks of the mouse, helping to further
reduce the costs and risks of e-discovery.

were facing more than just email management challenges, they were facing
challenges to storing, managing and discovering information from many
sources including file systems, instant messaging and SharePoint," said
Simon Jelley, senior director of Symantec Enterprise Vault product
management. "With the availability of Enterprise Vault 8.0, customers can
achieve complete single instance storage across all of their unstructured

benefits delivered by archiving including compliance, more efficient
electronic discovery and lower storage costs," said Brian Babineau, senior
analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group. "In our opinion, customers should not
be deciding on whether to implement archiving; rather they should be
determining what solution best helps them retain multiple content types
including e-mail, instant messaging and Microsoft SharePoint. With
Enterprise Vault 8.0, Symantec continues to innovate on its flexible
archiving platform making it easy for customers to implement and reap the
many rewards of a comprehensive archiving strategy."
