The Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA) has been enacted, but only certain provisions are in effect at this time, with remaining provisions expected to take effect in 2019/2020.

I’ve been extremely grateful for all the support Waterford Technologies have given over the past few months, with special thanks to Kevin who supported me on Xmas Eve, Rory in the last few weeks for the retention and space issues and finally Mark and Paul in helping me get through our e-discovery.

“Waterford Technologies gives BAM Peace of Mind”
The reason we chose a tool like MailMeter is that a lot of our business is based around being able to prove the facts of a discussion or a conversation. From a pure IT perspective, we have a clean data environment and an environment that cannot be tampered with by individual users and it gives us great comfort knowing it is there and cannot be tampered with. Only those with administrative rights can manipulate the data for GDPR motives such as tag, delete, apply retention policies, legal hold, or access block capabilities to relevant data.

The more I worked with Waterford the more impressed I was with their responsiveness to our questions and needs, their ability to deliver and their commitment to the success of our partnership. I am confident of a long and fruitful partnership

“Click-Manage-Move – Simple Archiving. Great technology, very good support from sales through to technical – Certainly, a partner that we will continue to grow our business with. ”
The tooling is simple to use, easy to navigate and flexible in deployment. We tested a lot of industry leading archiving toolsets, SISCIN was by far the easiest to use out of the box and intuitive to use. The ability to know what candidate data is going to move out to object storage with detailed analysis reports made this easy to sell to the customer as they could see the tangible benefit and the data footprint under management.
