Hi, The Enterprise Vault team is always looking to improve our products based upon customer feedback. Some changes you want would be new features, some times it's just improvments in an existing feature etc. So I have a question for you. What changes should we make which would not just please you but actually delight you about Enterprise Vault (apart from an ability to print money :-)?. The kind of feature that excites you, puts a smile on your face and you say I can't wait to use that, it's going to help us so much... One example for me is Virtual Vault in V8 sp3. We have the ideas system on Symantec Connect but a lot of them seem focused on improvements to existing features (which isn't a bad thing!) and I'm just wondering what else there is out there... At the moment if I looked at that list, there are probably 4 suggestions that have 10 or more votes. I'm sure it would take more than those 4 product changes to make every customer delighted to use our product! So some examples I can think of based upon discussions/issues on this forum Improved monitoring/reporting. Perhaps videos on how's to etc, Perhaps best practise document Easier OWA setup Very interested to hear your feedback! Cheers, Mike Bilsborough Director, Enterprise Vault Engineering

Improved PST Import functionality, specifically with Client driven Migrations. A bit like Vcare do with the PST Flightdeck.

No The Don. Leave it this way... better for us :) :) :) Conversion to PDF/A in addition to HTML would be great... Cheers

Add the ability to do NOT searches in Discovery Accelerator

Add a real time monotoring system that provides real time monotoring of the EV environment Like the EV Dashboard system that was created by JPKnight

Make Service packs updates and no more full binary installs Add an update option into the GUI where the app goes out and downloads the updates to the local machine for your specific version and then you can choose which to install.

What can we do in Enterprise Vault to DELIGHT you?

In the monitoring page, allow ' rightclick' on tasks and restart them

Live-Update for EV. preferably with the possibility to point to an internal liveupdate server

Monitoring page like JPKnight

Buy VCare ;-))

Applying only SP without the full install and EVPM GUI would be greate.In Client PST Migration ability to strict to specific location where pst resides not just "Documents and Settings".

EVPM UI sucks, most admins that use it want to scrip it and with a UI you cant, just my two cents....

Hello,

I'd like to ask for two small-ish things.

1) Better documentation for and control over Vault Cache in Domino Environments

Vault Cache is an incredibly useful feature, but all I get is the ability to turn it on or off. I'd like to be able to configure when vault cache is used - eg if working on a local replica or the client's IP address is in a specific range it should retrieve everything from cache. At the moment it seems that when the user's mail file is opened for the first time it checks for connectivity to the EVDG. If the client can connect, it works from the server directly. If not it uses vault cache.

This would be very useful for people who are working remotely, or are in an office where we have a Domino server (so they're working on a server copy) but there is no local EV server and a slow link between that office and the EV server.

2) NSF Imports

At the moment, if I import an NSF file it will create a folder in the user's mail file called "NSF Import" or something similar. EV then creates all of the stubs in this folder which can be used for archived email.

If we are importing a user's legacy Notes archive this archive will have a folder structure which matches the user's main mailbox, meaning that when EV migrates the folder hierarchy from the legacy archive we end up this structure in the subfolder which EV creates in the mail file.

Please could we allow EV to import the stubs back into the folders from which the messages were originally archived from?

Thanks for taking the time to ask for suggestions. I hope these make sense.

Phil.

What about a GUI based version for evpm, allowing zapping or permission changes to archives.
