Aug. 16, 2011 - PRLog -- WASHINGTON, DC,  – Metalogix Software, the leading provider in content lifecycle management (CLM) solutions for Microsoft® SharePoint®, Exchange®, and legacy environments, today announced the availability of Migration Manager for SharePoint – Documentum Edition. Ideal for large or small scale migration of all EMC Documentum content (including cabinets, folders, calendars and documents) Migration Manager for SharePoint – Documentum Edition features a fast, simple and lightweight client installation and a secure, remote connection with Documentum using the powerful Documentum Foundation Services (DFS) API.

“Many organizations have valuable business content contained in their legacy Documentum content management system that they need to free from license restraints by migrating it into Microsoft SharePoint,” said Steven Murphy, CEO, Metalogix. “The new Migration Manager for SharePoint – Documentum Edition gives organizations a rapid and non-disruptive solution for migrating this vital content, while retaining critical permissions, user data and metadata for compliance and corporate governance.”

The new Metalogix Migration Manager for SharePoint - Documentum Edition simplifies the process of migrating Documentum content to SharePoint, including SharePoint 2010. Documentum objects can be migrated at the item, folder or site level using a lightweight client application that connects to Documentum and SharePoint remotely through supported APIs. Metadata, user data and permissions can all be preserved and migrations are supported for SharePoint on-premises or SharePoint Online in the cloud.

Key benefits offered by Migration Manager for SharePoint – Documentum Edition include:

•   Migration of Content, Versions and Metadata – In addition to the documents themselves, Migration Manager for SharePoint can map and migrate metadata and Documentum types to SharePoint content types and metadata columns. All migration operations are simple to define, fully batchable, comprehensively logged, and non disruptive to the operation.

•   Documentum Reporting – Migration Manager for SharePoint includes a powerful reporting and analysis toolset to help define content and file metadata before it is migrated. This supports informed decisions about which content needs migration and how.

•   Migration of Permissions – Migration Manager for SharePoint supports user and permission mapping of Documentum permissions to SharePoint permissions.

•   Pre-Migration Check – Migration Manager for SharePoint provides a pre-migration check feature to enable users to scan their Documentum environment for Documentum URLs, content object names and content types that may not be compatible with SharePoint. This enables a quick evaluation of the actionable set of items that require modification in Documentum before they are properly translated into SharePoint.

Migration Manager for SharePoint – Documentum Edition supports any flavor of SharePoint 2007 or 2010 as a Documentum migration target. The new product also supports migrations to SharePoint environments on-premises or in the cloud.
