Your SharePoint is full of files nobody opens.

ArchiveBridge replaces Microsoft’s extra SharePoint storage for files unchanged in 2 years, at over 80% less per terabyte, with a link that brings each one back.

Read-only. Your Microsoft 365 admin approves it. No card.

How it works

You see the saving before anything moves.

Scan

Your Microsoft 365 admin approves a read-only scan that prices the saving.

Move

You pick the sites and how long unchanged counts as old. A closed project’s folder can go at once.

Restore

Open the link file and press Restore. Restores to SharePoint are free.

After

This file was archived to free up SharePoint storage.

Would my staff notice?

A little. A link file with the same name plus .html sits where the file used to be. Search finds it by name, not by the words inside the file. Old links won’t open it. Its Restore button brings the file back.

These old files would cost US$90 a month on Microsoft 365 Archive, against US$65 with ArchiveBridge (US$0.05 per GB, checked 18 Oct 2026). How the two compare

Prices inbefore tax
How this is worked out

Figures in USD, before tax. Microsoft includes 1 TB of SharePoint storage plus 10 GB per licence; only storage above that is charged, at Microsoft’s list price of US$0.20 per GB a month. The saving counts only files old enough to archive that sit above your allowance. ArchiveBridge’s cost is its published price for those files, storage included, with its billing steps. These are full-month estimates; real bills use measured daily usage. OneDrive is not counted: ArchiveBridge backs OneDrive up but does not remove files from it.

Built to be careful

Nothing is removed until its copy checks out.

  • Each copy is read back and must match exactly.
  • The scan app can’t write. Archiving needs a second approval.
  • Files locked as records are skipped. Keep sites under legal hold out of scope.
  • Archived files stay ordinary files under their original names.

Writing needs a second approval

The archive app, approved later, can write across your Microsoft 365. We act only on the sites you choose.

Where archives live

Australian accounts default to a dedicated Sydney storage account we run. Or bring your own and hold the keys.

Easy to leave

Archived files stay ordinary files under their original names, readable with common cloud storage tools.
