Strategic Alliance Actiance, Inc. has merged with Smarsh, signaling a combined approach to capture, archiving, and monitoring across multiple communication channels. This presents a cross-selling opportunity to offer enhanced compliance and e-discovery solutions to Smarsh customers and to repackage Actiance capabilities under a broader Smarsh portfolio.

Enterprise Credentials Smarsh serves top US banks and large financial institutions globally, along with government agencies in many states. Targeted outreach to Chief Compliance Officers, CIOs, and Information Governance leads in financial services and public sector could yield high-value deals for expanded archiving, governance, and risk management capabilities.

Leverage public-sector and enterprise resale partnerships to expand market reach, accelerate deal cycles, and introduce Smarsh Actiance offerings through established public sector and consulting partner networks.
