1. Records management is a critical function for organization seeking to gain control over exploding volumes of digital information and a key component of effective information governance.

   
   

   But, many organizations begin records management initiatives and are quickly overwhelmed, or only manage records within specific applications, because it is too difficult to manage across a large, diverse corpus of electronic information.

   
   

   Traditional file plans worked in the paper world but do not translate to the digital world. There is simply too much information to classify into complex file plans—especially since most organizations have no insight to most of their stored data. This lack of insight makes it impossible for organizations to create retention policies. The lack of policies creates a situation where information is retained forever (incurring higher storage costs).

   
   

   With Digital Reef, organizations can gain the insight into information stores to determine what kinds of records management policies should be set and what information assets those policies should be applied to.
