Is there a maintenance utility I should be running on it? This database contains vital customer information that is extremely important to the company.

Answer Wiki:
This database should be getting the same maintenance as your other mail store data bases to remove white space. You can also do an offline defrag using eseutil to ensure it is in good condition. Check the properties of the database store to make sure it is on the nightly maintenance schedule.

If you need a customized utility software for your database maintenance, I believe that it would be better to hire a software developer or programmer to create a customized software for maintaining a database.
