KVS Enterprise Vault is a great product, has lots of nice features around terminating PST's and bringing them back into the fold, amongst other things.
Does however keep the messages "live", i.e. on Disk storage, and can become VERY large if you want to keep lots of mail for a long time. Has a nice web interface, so you don't need outlook to search and read archived messages (don't even need the Exchange server up for archived messages). Also renders some content types (where a filter exists), so you can maintain some semblance of forward compatibility. For example if you upgrade to a version of Word that cant read old files, Enterprise vault stores a rendered version of the attachment that is viewable entirely within the browser (no ActiveX support required). This is a great feature if you want to retain stuff for a long time. Security on individual Vaults can be modified via the Admin interface, so your auditors can conduct audits of the email system without having each individual user go through their own email. Lots more other things. Haven't had direct experience with the other products.
