We get it. Switching to a new email archiving solution feels like a hassle.

Your current setup has been in place for years. It’s not perfect, but it kind of works. Search is slow. Compliance audits are stressful. Outages bring everything to a halt. But moving to something better sounds complicated — so you stick with what you’ve got.

Here’s the problem. The longer you stay with a system that’s already underdelivering, the more it costs you — in time, risk and lost control.

What doing nothing actually looks like

You’re not just avoiding change. You’re absorbing silent costs every day.
  • Hidden compliance gaps
Regulations evolve. If your archive can’t keep up with changing GDPR, FCA or SEC requirements, you’re already falling behind. And you might not notice until it’s too late.
  • Legal exposure
Outdated, unreliable archives make legal discovery harder. If your team can’t retrieve a key email quickly — or at all — you’re on the back foot in any dispute.
  • Wasted time and productivity
If it takes minutes (or hours) to find what should take seconds, your archive isn’t saving you time. It’s quietly draining it.
  • Zero access during outages
When your archive is tied to your main email provider, any downtime means data silence. No emails. No context. No decisions.

Change doesn’t have to be difficult

TrustLayer was built to remove the friction from switching.
  • No painful migration

Search and audit tools sold separately or hidden in “enterprise-only” plans.

  • Instant access
Search and retrieve any message in seconds. It just works — whether you need emails for legal, compliance or internal tracking.
  • Built-in resilience
If Microsoft 365 or Gmail go offline, you can still access your archive. Business carries on.
  • Tamper-proof by default
Encrypted, compliance-grade storage with full audit trails — all ready out of the box.

The risk isn’t switching. It’s staying put.

If your archive isn’t keeping up, you’re already paying the price.

Slow searches. Compliance stress. Missed evidence. Lost hours. None of it is going away on its own.

And when you realise switching doesn’t have to be painful? The decision makes itself.

Stop settling for “good enough”. Archive smarter with TrustLayer.

Unlike other products I’ve used in the past, getting everything up and running with TrustLayer was effortless. Any subsequent issues and questions I had were quickly and efficiently handled by the support team.
