Metalogix Announces Content Matrix 6.0 to Upgrade, Migrate and Organize SharePoint Content

WASHINGTON, DC, November 13, 2012 (Press-News.org) Metalogix, the leader in providing high-performance content infrastructure software that transforms the way organizations manage terabytes of business content on Microsoft SharePoint, Exchange and Cloud platforms, today announced the availability of Content Matrix 6.0, the most powerful way to upgrade, migrate and continuously organize SharePoint content. Going beyond basic Microsoft upgrade and site organization tools, this solution delivers unprecedented power and speed as well as the flexibility to upgrade to SharePoint 2013 from any previous version of SharePoint (2003, 2007 and 2010). Content Matrix 6.0 is the evolution of Metalogix Migration Manager - the most widely used SharePoint upgrade technology since first being introduced to the market in 2001.

"Organizations are looking for better and faster ways to support and manage the rapid growth of content driven by rich media, web applications, mobile technology and social solutions. Our customers alone are experiencing over 60 percent content growth year-over-year and are struggling with managing and upgrading their SharePoint environments," said Steven Murphy, CEO, Metalogix. "Using our decade of experience as the industry's most popular SharePoint migration solution, we've developed Content Matrix 6.0, for directly consolidating all business content into any version of SharePoint including 2013, 2010, 2007 and 2003. With a focus on enhanced functionality, speed and simplicity, we have now made it easier for users to organize, classify and manage their own content so that organizations can streamline knowledge sharing and improve collaboration."

Content Matrix 6.0 is built to simplify an organization's content experience. SharePoint architects and administrators can easily and quickly upgrade from any version of SharePoint to SharePoint 2013. They can also 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.

"The reorganization function of Metalogix Content Matrix has made a world of difference for us. We can move hundreds of files from place to place by putting them in a queue and letting Content Matrix do the work. What used to take us half a day to complete is now done within 30 minutes," said Claire Edgson, Group IT Manager, Chalcroft Ltd. "Two of our pro users, who are in charge of moving large amounts of content, have absolutely loved Metalogix Content Matrix. You're not sitting there watching the files copy individually while the systems grind to a halt. The solution swiftly re-organizes the content and end-users don't know it's going on. For us, it's been absolute gold."

With Content Matrix 6.0, users can:

Upgrade to SharePoint from any previous version (2003, 2007 and 2010)
Content Matrix 6.0 provides one-hop, high-speed and high-fidelity migration of content from any previous version of SharePoint at speeds 25 times faster than competitors. Users can identify existing content, build out a new site structure and move content when, where and how they prefer.

Migrate File Shares and ECM Content
Content Matrix 6.0 rapidly consolidates all business content into SharePoint without losing context and metadata and other relevant attributes such as permissions or information structure. Users are able to easily and effectively connect and move terabytes of content from file shares, websites, blogs & wikis, legacy enterprise content management platforms and Google Docs.

Keep SharePoint Organized
As business needs evolve, projects change and departments reorganize, an enterprise's initial organized site structure and information architecture can unravel and cause user confusion and errors. Using the powerful content organization capabilities available in Content Matrix 6.0, users can keep SharePoint site structures in sync in any dynamic business environment. Users have the ability to easily split or merge sites and site collections or reorganize the structure of their existing SharePoint farms.

Move to the Cloud
Content Matrix 6.0 enables users to move SharePoint to the cloud by connecting with an organization's Office 365 environment and giving users the ability to move content in either direction between on-premises or the cloud.

Empower Content Owners
Content Matrix 6.0 allows SharePoint content owners to organize and manage their sites and content directly from within the SharePoint user interface. Users with appropriate permissions and rights can easily move, bulk upload, tag and classify their content within the SharePoint farm.

"SharePoint started off small for us and grew very rapidly in an unstructured manner," stated Patrick Wirtz, Manager of Technology Innovation, The Walsh Group. "Metalogix helped us organize the data to meet our users' needs."
