We will be moving to Exch 2013, but due to our archiving requirements that is not sufficient. We have to keep e-mail and conversations for 7+ years and do not want to keep mailboxes in exchange after employee termination. So we have to use a 3rd party archive product to separate the exchange requirement and since the Lync tie-in to Exchange does not use the SMTP interface for conversation storage, the Journal rules will not capture it.

If so, and you have integrated Exchange and Lync, then Lync can already do this for you by saving IM conversations into a message folder named "Conversation History".

So for people are have Lync 2013, do you have a 3rd party app to capture IM conversations and place in an archive system like Autonomy or Enterprise Vault. I am more interested in on premise systems with perpetual licensing, as some have started moving to subscription licenses. The one I know about are: DataParser by 17a-4 Vantage by Actiance Mindlink Compliance by Mindlink We have to have a product that will move all conversations to a worm-type device and allow for both end-user and compliance searching for e-discovery. We already have that with our mail archive product so having a IM product that converts IM messages to e-mail and sending to the archive, is what we want. We have that today with our OCS deployment using the now defunct Quest Policy Authority. Thanks for your help.
