Every year the amount of stored data grows by 60%, and yet only 15% of this is strategically significant. Administrators can be asked to control the growth of obviously useless data; looking at file age and type. But cleaning up this kind of content is only a part of the solution.

No matter how sophisticated your SRM tool, it doesn’t have the ability to distinguish important from non-essential data. Only users can determine the value of their data. The most effective policy has each user sorting through their own home share. A self-managing policy always leads to dramatic reduction in storage use.

Northern Storage Suite brings your users on board; makes them aware of what responsible storage is and shows what space can be reclaimed. Self-managing storage is made possible by providing users with the right information at the right time - reports on their oldest files, largest files, duplicates and media files when users have reached a threshold in their storage quota - making individual data management easy and efficient.
