Top Rated Barracuda Message Archiver Alternatives
Once all is setup, very nice tool that will keep all your emails, and conversation history from Lync/Skype For Business in one place. Can't alter these emails either. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Set up takes some domain administration knowledge (Have to open your domain controller up and provide a valid SSL certificate-self signed won't work. Other option is to pull your AD info unencrypted over the public internet, which I am surprised is an option at all these days!). Documentation was unclear in some cases, such as what emails will import, and how to get everything on there initially, as the process is separate from the Essentials setup for email security. There are a few actions to take to make sure everything gets on there the first time-With large email databases this job is known to crash a few times before getting everything uploaded. After that, new emails are archived by journaling. Conversation history is pulled nightly as a separate job. This can be confusing to some, and also allows people to delete their conversation history before the pull happens at night. Despite all these downfalls, Support is available and ready to walk one through everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their solution is a hybrid, in that you have a hardware appliance, that mirrors to the cloud for backups. The only downside is that you will eventually outgrow the appliance and need to migrate to another physical box. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
