Company Name: AvePoint

SharePoint Topic: Content
Management

Challenge: 

The Alegri International Group, a leading IT consultancy with
focus on Microsoft technologies, wanted to migrate from its
existing Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 environment to
SharePoint 2010 as new functions in SharePoint 2010 would enable
the company to improve a great deal of its SharePoint-based
internal processes. In order to perform a successful SharePoint
migration, Alegri knew it would need to enlist the help of a
third-party solution that could offer:

•  A secure, expedited migration from its SharePoint 2007
  environment to SharePoint 2010
• The ability to granularly migrate data to purge the new
  environment of antiquated and unused data
• Automated migration job scheduling that could be scheduled to
  occur during off-peak hours, limiting business disruption

Benefits and Outcomes: 

Alegri administrators examined and tested several third party
products, but ultimately found the ideal solution in AvePoint’s
DocAve Migrator for SharePoint. Already an AvePoint partner and
value-added reseller, the company knew DocAve’s innovative and
reliable data transfer tool could granularly migrate content down
to individual items while retaining associated metadata. By using
DocAve Alegri:

•  Reduced total migration time to SharePoint 2010 by five
  months
•  Minimized business disruption by scheduling migration
  jobs to automatically occur off-hours
•  Securely transferred more than 100 gigabytes (GB) of data
  to SharePoint 2010 while maintaining customizations, metadata, and
  field values
•  Granularly selected data to be migrated and pruned older,
  unused data
