Evaluate partner solutions that support migration from SPS 2003 to MOSS 2007

  • 项目

 A customer is looking to migrate their SPS 2003 content to MOSS 2007 and also restructure their sites during the migration process.

None of the standard upgrade approach from Microsoft would accomplish that and I've been evaluating some partner solutions that support content migration from WSS V2/SPS 2003 to WSS V3/MOSS 2007. The following 2 products have been evaluated and compared based on the trial download and information I received from the indivisual product sales/support/bussiness dev team.
