We are always there for you with our support services. This commitment holds true even after your acceptance phase.You will be fully supported by us, for example, we will extend our support when an audit is announced, or if further training is required, or may be a follow-up due to a change of an employee or a group of employees.
Access to the Relevant
Data even after Liquidation
Enable Efficient and Secure
Access to the Relevant Data even after
Liquidation
CHALLENGE: How can one guarantee access to the relevant data even after the end of the company? Moreover, the data access must be without operating the older systems and using the relevant resources.
Each of our archiving projects is fixed price based, allowing you perform the necessary planning and budgeting. The fixed price includes migration and ongoing costs.
The ViewBox can be used not only for decommissioning systems, but also for carve-outs required due to company acquisitions.
By decommissioning legacy systems, internal resources are freed, which means they can be used for productive systems or other projects. As a result, your internal resources are no longer burdened.
The main goal of archiving is to be able to subsequently decommission the legacy system. After a project with us, this refers to the application both on the old server and the old database.
You will receive project documentation for every archiving project, which serves as an essential evidence for the internal audit and the auditors. It takes into account evidence for data integrity, data completeness and audit security.
The archiving software is multi-client and can therefore be used for different clients and systems from a wide range of manufacturers. You are able to build an archive for all your legacy systems.

General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR)
even the 'Right to be Forgotten' .
ViewBox is compliant with the new European Union – General Data Protection Regulation (EU-GDPR). GDPR directs as to how the personal data must be collected, processed, and erased.
The General Data Protection Regulation act (GDPR) of the European Union (EU) is also valid in Germany from 25th May 2018. The essential updates include the ‘right to be forgotten’. Accordingly, under certain situations, the right to have private information about a person be removed from the Internet searches and other directories.
ViewBox is in accordance with the EU-GDPR guidelines wherein such data can be made anonymous. The companies will also get an additional expanded accountability for handling such data. Moreover, in case of a risk-afflicted data processing, a ‘data protection-impact assessment’ must be carried out based on a certain criterion. ViewBox by AvenDATA prepares you for all such types of new and legal fundamental requirement(s) with a complete know-how of the legal compliance.
