DocAve Migrator for Documentum eRoom Migration

Migrate. Quickly consolidate enterprise content from legacy systems or previous Microsoft SharePoint versions into Microsoft SharePoint 2013 and 2010.

DocAve Documentum eRoom Migrator is the market's most efficient and cost-effective solution for the transfer of collaborative workspaces and document libraries from EMC Documentum eRoom to Microsoft SharePoint 2013 and 2010. DocAve allows SharePoint administrators to easily automate the process of consolidating multiple eRoom content sources into SharePoint, thereby maximizing return on investment in legacy content residing in eRoom.

To ensure a complete and successful migration, DocAve's Pre-Migration Scanner provides a detailed analysis of the migration before it is performed. The DocAve Pre-migration Scanner will detect and notify you of any illegal characters, user permissions, user names, user domains, and other legacy elements that must be mapped in order to migrate successfully into SharePoint.

Business Advantages for Documentum eRoom Migration

  • Effectively Consolidate eRoom Content Sources into SharePoint 2013 and 2010

    DocAve Documentum eRoom Migrator reduces content sprawl and improves worker productivity by centralizing eRoom project databases and other collaborative assets into a single SharePoint 2013 or 2010 repository. This allows for easy content sharing and information discovery in the new platform.

  • Simplified Migration Management Through a Centralized Administration Console

    No special hardware is required – job configuration can be easily performed from a single Web-based interface. Administrators can access the console interface from anywhere to schedule multiple migration jobs and monitor job progress. It's simple, quick, and inexpensive.

  • Maintain Business Continuity with Intuitive Mapping of eRoom Elements to SharePoint Assets

    Clean up and reorganize eRoom content quickly and efficiently using customizable content and file-size filters, resulting in a clutter-free SharePoint repository, architected to align with business needs. GUI-based mapping of content, metadata, and permissions allow everything to be migrated with precision and ease. With optimized mapping of eRoom elements to their associated SharePoint artifacts, everything is kept in sync, so knowledge workers can confidently continue their online projects without interruption.

  • Reduce Downtime with Flexible Deployment and Scheduling

    Migrate an entire workspace, a document library, or just a single list item. Granular or bulk content migration and customizable job scheduling allow administrators to plan migration jobs according to business needs and timetables, reducing the impact on functioning production environments.
