CloudM Archive 2.7 Release
Introducing Google Chat Archiving and Progressive Search Enhancements

We are excited to announce the release of CloudM Archive 2.7. This update is designed to help organizations better manage their digital footprints, ensure legal compliance, and reduce storage costs across the Google Workspace ecosystem.
The Headline: Google Chat Archiving
As remote and hybrid work continues to dominate, the volume of data generated in Google Chat has skyrocketed. Version 2.7 now allows administrators to seamlessly archive Google Chat messages, including 1-to-1 conversations, group chats, and Spaces.
- Retention Compliance: Meet legal requirements by storing chat history outside of the active production environment.
- Metadata Preservation: Archive messages along with timestamps, sender details, and attachments.
- Cost Efficiency: Move aging chat data to low-cost storage without losing searchability.
What’s New in Archive 2.7?
Progressive Search
We've optimized our search engine to be faster and more intuitive. Find specific archived items across Drive, Gmail, and now Chat with improved filtering and reduced latency.
Enhanced Security
Improved auditing logs and granular permissions ensure that only authorized personnel can view or restore sensitive archived chat data.
Refined UI
A refreshed dashboard view provides a clearer overview of your storage savings and archive health at a glance.
Improved API Access
Developers can now leverage updated API endpoints to integrate CloudM Archive data with third-party eDiscovery or analytics tools more effectively.
Why Use CloudM Archive?
CloudM Archive remains the leading solution for businesses looking to optimize their Google Workspace tenant. By moving data to your own cloud storage (GCP, Azure, or AWS), you maintain total ownership and control over your data while significantly reducing the "license bloat" associated with keeping ex-employees' data active just for retention purposes.
Seamless Migration Integration
As always, CloudM Archive works hand-in-hand with CloudM Migrate. When offboarding an employee, you can automatically trigger an archive process that clears their active license while preserving every file and chat for future reference.
