Solution Overview

1. DataParser pulls data directly from source APIs, SFTP sites or databases. Chats are threaded into conversations, metadata is maintained, and filed are attached. All data is encrypted in transit and no data is stored within DataParser.

2. Users' activities in source platforms are never interrupted by DataParser.

3. DataParser is for on-premise use and especially suited for strict security and data privacy policies. DataParser Cloud servers are hosted in a secure Azure environment with a dedicated Cloud Support Team to monitor processes. No client data is stored in Azure.

4. All data ingested by the archive is indexed and reconciled to users for easy eDiscovery.
