9/28/16 – Millbrook, NY – 17a-4 has added features to the DataParser’s Skype for Business Online module. The DataParser collects, formats and controls regulated data sources. The Skype Online module pulls users’ content from Office 365 allowing clients to take advantage of Microsoft’s communication and presence technology while still complying with SEC, FINRA and CFTC rules.

With Active Directory support and the ability to run multiple configurations, user groups can be filtered for collection and output. Once configured, the DataParser runs automatically only collecting specified users’ new data that has accumulated since its last run.
Beyond Skype for Business Online and Skype for Business Server, Bloomberg, Cisco Jabber, SharePoint, Thomson Reuters Eikon Messenger, FactSet and more can be collected and formatted by the DataParser.
