Hi everyone,
We are in the process of reviewing tools to assist with management of oour SharePoint environments.We are looking at a tool that can assist with the day-to-day management of the farm, sites, and content. What we also need is reporting on user access, implement setting accross sites/libraries (e.g. versioning etc.).
We have a relatively small farm, and let’s assume finances is not an issue. We also need good support, since we do not have the appetite or the resources to struggle with a 3rd party app when things goes pear-shaped.
We’ve had demo’s by both these parties, but I’d like to hear from “the people on the ground” 🙂
Sales people tell you all the nice tales, which is right, but I need an objective (well, as far as possible) view from the community. Your assistance and comments would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Hi Francois,
We have been using Axceler ControlPoint for over a year now on 2 SP Farms and have been extremely happy with both the functionality and support they provide. It was easy to install, intuitive to use, and has provided a level of visibility into the system and ease of system level administration that we did not have before. The reporting is extensive and easy to use. We also just purchased Change Manager, which is an added feature to move sites from environment to environment and while I can’t give it an official review, looks good so far. Good Luck!
Sharon
