Abstract
This IDC Vendor Profile evaluates Mimecast, an emerging supplier of email
archiving, security, and continuity solutions delivered in a
software-as-a-service model. This document discusses the company' s history,
product offerings, and competitive position in the context of cloud-based
storage and security infrastructure services.
This Vendor Profile is part of the Small Vendor Profile (SVP) Series, a special
IDC initiative of IDC' s storage hardware, storage software, semiconductor, and
compliance infrastructure groups. The goal of the SVP Series is to profile
smaller "have you ever heard of" companies that have compelling positions
within these IDC services. Every client of at least one IDC service within one
of the IDC groups listed will receive each and every vendor profile, regardless
of which analyst authors the profile. The SVP Series runs from October 2008
through September 2009.
