Employees Globally Agree Bad Email Management Creates Risk



http://ow.ly/76R3J

An article by Kristin Craik appearing on the businessreviewcanada.ca website.  This article discusses a recent survey taken by Oasys Limited, a software creation company.  According to the survey, "Oasys found that 96% of employees believe their companies “face some level of risk associated with poor email management. Even more, 1 in 5 of those surveyed explained that they think their company actually faces “High Risk.”"

The article further states, "Osays Limited expects this issue in email management to become an even larger issue as volumes of email increase.

“IT departments simply aren’t prepared to handle the exploding volume of data they are seeing and often end up imposing inbox size limits on the individual users, contributing to the problem of misplaced email,” said Alec Milton, CEO of Oasys Software."

In addition, the article provides an interesting statistics, "...risky employee behaviour when it comes to email management is estimated by the IDC to cost in between $12 billion to $22 billion for companies."
