Its Unified Archive platform consolidates eDiscovery, records management, regulatory compliance, data privacy, file analysis and analytics under a single architecture, eliminating the data silos that drive up cost and legal risk. Founded in 1999 by Kon Leong and Arvind Srinivasan, ZL serves Fortune 500 firms and federal agencies and has been recognized in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Information Archiving for more than a decade. Today the company positions that same governed data layer as the foundation for enterprise GenAI and analytics.
