AvePoint’s DocAve Governance Automation Named a “KMWorld 2016 Trend-Setting Product”

DocAve Governance Automation is the sixth AvePoint solution to make the list in the last six years

Jersey City, New Jersey — September 13, 2016AvePoint, the Microsoft Cloud expert, announced today that DocAve Governance Automation Service Pack (SP) 8 has been named a “KMWorld 2016 Trend-Setting Product”. This is the sixth consecutive year an AvePoint product has made the list.

The panel, which consists of editorial colleagues, market and technology analysts, Knowledge Management theoreticians, practitioners, customers, and a select few savvy users in a variety of disciplines, reviewed a number of vendor solutions for such characteristics as usefulness, scalability, and level of innovation.

“It is an honor for AvePoint’s DocAve Governance Automation to be recognized as a ‘KMWorld 2016 Trend-Setting Product’,” said John Peluso, Senior Vice President of Product Strategy, AvePoint. “Governance initiatives for SharePoint and Office 365 are nothing new, but are difficult to put into practice without the right solution. AvePoint’s inclusion in this list is a testament to the importance of strong governance strategies and the need to not just implement them, but also enforce them without slowing down organizational productivity.”

DocAve Governance Automation allows organizations to easily manage and automate SharePoint lifecycle and permissions management requests to implement an extensible governance strategy that empowers users, is easy to maintain, and scales as the business grows. With the latest release of AvePoint’s SharePoint governance solution, organizations now have access to a single governance system that allows businesses to easily manage the latest SharePoint versions – including SharePoint 2016, SharePoint 2013, and SharePoint Online, as well as Office 365 Groups – under a centralized platform.

“Each year we look for software products that break new territory in helping organizations achieve their knowledge management goals,” said Sandra Haimila, KMWorld Editor. “These products are designed, developed and perfectly timed to fill a niche in the marketplace before users are even aware that such functionality and flexibility have been missing. Designated as the KMWorld Trend-Setting Products of 2016, these offerings hold the promise for the marketplace.”
