AvePoint Releases New Software to Simplify Migration from Documentum eRoom to SharePoint 2007
DocAve 4.5 eRoom Migrator enables cost-effective migration of all content and metadata from Documentum eRoom into Microsoft SharePoint 2007 ensuring easy transition and quick platform adoption.
JERSEY CITY, NJ, February 28, 2008 — AvePoint, an industry leader in enterprise-strength data protection and management for Microsoft SharePoint, has released the Documentum eRoom migration software as part of its award-wining DocAve Software Platform for SharePoint.The new DocAve eRoom Migrator module provides an efficient and cost-effective
approach to transfer collaborative workspaces and document libraries from
Documentum eRoom into Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007 and Windows
SharePoint Services (WSS) v3. This allows SharePoint administrators to easily
automate the process of consolidating multiple content sources onto SharePoint,
while maximizing the return on investment in existing content currently residing
in Documentum eRoom.
With DocAve eRoom Migrator, administrators can easily perform seamless,
full-fidelity content migration to Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 and
Windows SharePoint Services version 3. It supports selective migrations and
allows for the co-existence of multiple platforms as businesses migrate content
incrementally into SharePoint.
"We have seen a strong impetus, predominately within our Life Sciences and
Financial Services customers, to look for a more cost effective alternative to
Documentum eRoom for their collaborative document management needs," said John
Katzbach, Director of Enterprise Solutions, Entology, Inc. "Certainly MOSS 2007,
with its breadth of capabilities, including collaborative document management
and tight integration with Microsoft Outlook and the Office suite, tops the
list. Now, with the release of AvePoint's DocAve 4.5 eRoom Migrator tool and its
ability to easily migrate eRoom elements into MOSS 2007 including collaborative
workspaces, document libraries, users and security permissions, the
justification for our eRoom customers to make the switch is that much easier."
Key Features and Benefits of DocAve eRoom Migrator include:
- Effectively Consolidate eRoom Content Sources onto SharePoint 2007:
DocAve eRoom Migrator reduces content sprawl and improves IT productivity by
centralizing eRoom project databases and other collaborative assets onto a
single SharePoint repository.
- Maintain Consistent Service Levels Before and After Migration: With
optimized mapping of eRoom elements to the associated SharePoint artifacts,
including users and security permissions, everything is kept in sync, so
knowledge workers can continue to use their online projects with confidence and
without interruption.
- Flexible Deployment and Scheduling: Migrate an entire workspace, a
document library, or just a single list item. Granular content migration and
flexible job scheduling allows administrators to plan migration jobs according
to business needs and other organizational timetables.
"With record adoption of Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies in the
Enterprise Collaboration Market and with so many enterprises switching over from
other document repositories, our customers are constantly looking for reliable
tools to easily and selectively migrate content, permissions, and metadata into
their new SharePoint environment," said TJ (Tianyi) Jiang, Chief Operating
Officer, AvePoint. "Following AvePoint's tradition of developing world-class
software for SharePoint platform management, we are excited to release DocAve
4.5 eRoom Migrator to help ease organizations transition into the new and
powerful SharePoint platform."
