Citizen Schools Completes it SharePoint 2010 Migration With MetaVis
|
 Citizen Schools, an educational non-profit, has completed it migration to SharePoint 2010 with the help of the MetaVis Suite. Citizen Schools SharePoint-based Intranet had grown out of control and the release of SharePoint 2010 gave Citizen Schools an opportunity to redesign and reorganize their SharePoint infrastructure. With MetaVis, Citizen Schools designed SharePoint 2010 to include taxonomies and metadata and make content easily searchable and usable. Will Nourse, Chief Technology Officer for Citizen Schools commented that "MetaVis support for SharePoint 2010 specific features such as Term Store-based metadata and Content Types were instrumental in our migration. It enabled us to more efficiently and easily populate the content as we made our move to 2010."

MetaVis Expands SharePoint 2010 Support to Term Stores and Data Sets |
MetaVis has expanded its support for SharePoint 2010 to include specific 2010 features such as Term Stores and Document Sets. By supporting specific SharePoint 2010 features, MetaVis helps users take full advantage of the SharePoint 2010 functionality and plan and/or execute a 2010 migration strategy.  The Term Store Manager in the MetaVis Suite allows users to browse SharePoint 2010 term stores and copy term hierarchies, term sets or entire groups of terms between SharePoint servers. It also allows users to reorganize terms. This dramatically simplifies the maintenance of term sets across multiple SharePoint 2010 server farms and the ability to organize them. MetaVis also supports Document Sets in SharePoint 2010 sites as any other native SharePoint object allowing users to copy Document Sets between SharePoint 2010 sites. This makes it easy to copy data using specific SharePoint 2010 features between SharePoint 2010 sites.

 Earlier this month MetaVis announced Live Compare! a new feature allowing SharePoint users to compare SharePoint 2003, 2007 and 2010 sites. The new real-time Live Compare! functionality allows SharePoint users to pinpoint differences between SharePoint sites including their content, information architecture, security groups, permissions and make appropriate changes to improve overall SharePoint governance and organization. Comparing SharePoint architecture and items is essential when migrating to SharePoint 2010 to verify that all content and site objects have been copied into the new environment properly. Live Compare! does not require a server side install or agent and can be used with any SharePoint that is hosted or premise based. Read MetaVis Live Compare! press release or blog.
