According to AvePoint the Content Manager

Migrate. Manage. Simplify enterprise content organization, restructuring, and management for Microsoft® SharePoint® 2013 and SharePoint 2010.

Content Manager allows organizations to:

Comprehensively copy, move, migrate, and restructure

SharePoint apps, content, sites, and topology within or across SharePoint environments in real time or on a schedule

Quickly tag and classify SharePoint content

By updating SharePoint metadata in bulk or through an organized review process, with optional delegation to business owners

Easily respond to evolving information governance policies

Or organizational structure changes by managing enterprise content through a single, highly intuitive management console

Microsoft® Office 365 compatibility

Allows administrators to seamlessly restructure SharePoint 2013 content on premises or within hybrid environments

DocAve Content Manager comprehensively moves, copies, and restructures Microsoft SharePoint apps, content, sites, and topology within SharePoint 2010 or across SharePoint 2013 environments – whether on premises or hosted in Microsoft Office 365.

Why DocAve?

Our Need is a Central Point

Our SharePoint Platform has been designed to support multiple Public Facing Internet sites. A great example is http://www.agrealestate.eu/en/Pages/default.aspx

The Public Facing Internet sites are hosted on a DMZ zone so there is no access to SharePoint Logs, no access to IIS Server or the Central Administration. The only way is to connect via MSTSC in a special domain. Not a problem until there, but in the meanwhile if you have multiple servers load balanced with F5 and more than 15 developers this can be very annoying.

 

  • Our need was a Central Point where we could manage our SharePoint Farms without any time loss.
  • Our need was a Central Point where all SharePoint Developers could see all the settings in a READ-ONLY view.
  • Our need was a Central Point where developers could first check the settings of the Managed Farm without opening a ticket for the 3line.
  • …

 

Our need was simple a Central Point!
