Latest DocAve Release Delivers Powerful Enhancements

DocAve v5.1.1 introduces pioneering capabilities including extranet replication, EMC Centera integration, end user-enabled content archiving, and multiple account management and security enhancements

Jersey City, NJ, January 21, 2009 — AvePoint, the leading provider of infrastructure management software solutions for Microsoft SharePoint, announced today the latest minor release of its flagship DocAve Software Platform. Following the Fall 2008 release of DocAve v5, this release delivers powerful new functionality to the award-winning platform, and serves to continue AvePoint’s long tradition of constantly expanding its product’s capabilities in anticipation of customer and SharePoint community needs and objectives.

"We are very excited about the latest release of DocAve v5, which brings potent new functionality to the platform”, said Dr. Tianyi Jiang, COO of AvePoint. “Organizations are continuously discovering new ways to leverage SharePoint for increased productivity, and AvePoint’s goal is to provide the comprehensive toolset they need to make these ideas a concrete reality. All of the enhancements introduced in DocAve v5.1.1, from the dynamic security trimming to the end-user enabled archiving tool, have been developed to give our customers the edge when it comes to realizing maximum value with regard to their SharePoint deployment."

Several modules within the DocAve Software Platform have been enhanced as part of fthe v5.1.1 release:

• Real-time Extranet Replication

  DocAve Replicator facilitates both live and scheduled extranet synchronization. By enabling one-way and two-way replication over HTTP/HTTPS internet protocols, DocAve Replicator unburdens administrators from having to open additional ports in their firewall, and eliminates the requirement for all replication agents to be present within the same network.

• Administration Security Trimming, Dead-Account Detection/Deletion, One-Step Permissions Transfer

  DocAve SharePoint Administrator now empowers SharePoint administrators to delegate security management to site collection administrators – providing them trimmed views of, and control over, only content and users to which they have granted appropriate permissions. Additionally, SharePoint Administrator now includes an automated dead-account recognition, transfer, and deletion utility. This powerful tool lets administrators keep SharePoint and Active Directory account rosters synchronized and up-to-date, with single-click account deletion and permissions-transfer to new accounts.

• End-User Archiving and Comprehensive Archive Reporting

  DocAve Extension Archiver now lets administrators delegate to their end-users the ability to archive content directly within the SharePoint interface. Via the Site Actions menu within SharePoint, end-users can archive content for which they have permissions, enabling business-apprpriate archiving levels and optimal platform performance. Additionally, DocAve’s administrative report now provides comprehensive archiving information, including archived site size, number of items archived, and SQl storage re-patriation statistics.

• Total EMC Centera Integration

  DocAve Backup and Recovery and Extension Archiver empower EMC Centera customers to enable integrated de-duping of their DocAve archive and backup stores, to ensure optimal storage resource utilization.

• XML-Based Mapping Profile Integration for Migrations

  DocAve Migrator Suite lets administrators import and export XML mapping profiles to further streamline migration jobs. Now administrators can edit profiles in any XML editor, upload the file into DocAve, and both manage and track the mappings via the DocAve interface.
