SharePoint Administration

Business Advantages for Microsoft SharePoint Administration

• Improved IT Productivity and Reduced Administration Costs

  DocAve Administrator allows instant discovery of new sites, control of access permissions at every level, and completely centralizes management and application control. It helps organizations reduce the costs associated with deployment and management of complex SharePoint infrastructure, regardless of the number of the servers or farms.

• Simplified and Unified Management throughout the Enterprise

  Through a highly intuitive interface, featuring wizard or form-based plans and familiar ribbon-based controls, administrators can easily identify SharePoint assets dispersed across the enterprise and hosted in Office 365 using a rule-based search, and propagate configuration and security permissions to web applications, sites, folders, and lists in bulk, resulting in quicker time-to-value of each update. Objects selected using tree or search modes can be saved for quick access in the future.

• Reduced Security, Compliance, and Performance Risks

  DocAve Administrator simplifies user security management and global policy control. It facilitates the deployment of policies that are otherwise difficult and time-consuming to implement. DocAve Administrator delivers granular, precise control over security permissions – down to the item-level – across entire local and cloud-based SharePoint deployments.

DocAve Administrator Technical Overview

• Perform all SharePoint Central Administration functions that can normally only be performed for a single web application at a time across multiple web applications and farms whether on premises or hosted on Office 365 or other cloud providers – at any SharePoint object level – from a unified user interface (selectable in tree mode or returned via the global search)
• Simplify security, configuration, and content provisioning policy implementation and enforcement with policy-based controls
• Manage configurations, security, solutions, and features globally with easily defined groupings of sites or farms in order to simplify management by the type of environment, physical location, or business function
• Schedule all administrative functions for either the entire environment or components of it to automate policy enforcement
• Manage roles and permissions at any SharePoint object level and delegate management of properties to local administrators, concealing unauthorized objects
• Simplify selections with rule-based search of SharePoint assets and rule-based user security search in a global environment
• Execute security/permissions searches and export reports based on security search results
• Manage and update (edit, clone, transfer, or delete) user securities across multiple objects at all levels from both user- and SharePoint- centric perspectives, no matter what authentication scheme SharePoint leverages (including NTLM, Claims Based, Classic, and Forms Based Authentication)
• E-mail, capture, and archive all administrative actions for real-time alerts, on-demand review, or to satisfy compliance or audit requirements
