Understanding the Changes: Arctera and Enterprise Vault

In May 2026, Arctera and Enterprise Vault announced a significant structural change that reshapes how organizations can approach compliance and information governance.  Arctera now operates as a cloud-based platform, while all on-premises deployments fall under the Enterprise Vault name.

Arctera FAQ

Arctera Unified Platform and Enterprise Vault Complete bring together an entire data governance toolkit under a unified cloud-based (Arctera) or on-premises system (EV). The Arctera changes and the new EV platform aim to simplify services and reduce fragmented workflows. 

The platform updates and changes to product licensing will impact renewal terms and the availability of software bundles. Subscription and budget changes can impact current Arctera and EV customers’ long-term data governance strategies.

As part of the changes, Arctera no longer offers managed services for on-premises products. Bluesource continues to offer our managed services for all on-premises Arctera products

Take into account your data regulation needs, access needs, scalability, IT team capabilities, and budget considerations. We’ve pulled together a quick guide to help start your on-prem v cloud conversations. 

Arctera Unified Platform and EV Complete are all-in-one software packages. While many organizations can benefit from having all the capabilities within one program, some may only need one or two specific services. In that case, alternative solutions may be the best option. Bluesource consultants can help determine what data governance solutions make the most sense for your organization.

Our team can help current Arctera and EV customers assess renewal risk, explore optimization opportunities, evaluate options, and consider the pros and cons of these changes.

Enterprise Vault and Arctera are powerful data governance systems. However, if your company only needs specific capabilities, options from Microsoft, Cloudlocker, and our own ArchiveMASH migration software.
