Speeding, easing SharePoint migration

Metalogix has launched Content Matrix 6.0, the latest iteration of the former Migration Manager product. Metalogix reports Context Matrix provides power, speed and flexibility to upgrade to SharePoint 2013 from any previous version of SharePoint (2003, 2007 and 2010).

Content Matrix 6.0 is designed to simplify an organization’s content experience, including moving to the cloud. In addition to SharePoint migration, architects and administrators can migrate file shares and documents from legacy enterprise content management (ECM) systems and keep SharePoint content organized in a high fidelity and ongoing basis. Further, content owners have more control over content directly from the SharePoint user interface.

Metalogix has also introduced StoragePoint 4.0, which features the ability to automatically and continuously back up unstructured SharePoint content, known as binary large objects (BLOBs). Metalogix says that by using StoragePoint 4.0 in conjunction with Context Matrix 6.0, organizations can migrate and de-dupe legacy file shares into SharePoint at more that 125GB per hour, thus dramatically reducing content storage sprawl and further lowering the total cost of ownership.
