WALTHAM, MA, [August 27,2010] – Metalogix Software, leading provider of Microsoft SharePoint migration, management and archiving solutions today announced that technology solution provider Blackbaud Inc. has chosen Metalogix’s SharePoint Site Migration Manager for their migration projects within MOSS 2007.

As an organization working in the nonprofit market, when Blackbaud needed to migrate SharePoint content they looked for a cost-effective migration solution that was easy, fast and would also allow them to flexibly re-organize content. Blackbaud was looking to migrate content from an existing 60GB SharePoint site collection in a single content database to several new site collections each with its own new content database to support ongoing growth and manageability. The company reviewed solutions from multiple providers, ultimately choosing Metalogix Site Migration Manager for its superior capabilities and proven reliability.
“After extensive research and testing, we decided to go with Metalogix for one simple reason, it works. All of the other vendors who we contacted, professed to have competing products, yet in the area of migration utilities, Metalogix was the only vendor that supplied an efficient, working product. Site Migration Manager won out because it was easy to use, it provided point and click migration, and the price point was competitive to say the least.” Matthew Bower, Knowledge Systems Administrator within Blackbaud’s Enterprise Strategic Services department, was impressed with the chosen Metalogix solution. He explains, “For any of our future implementations, we will look to Metalogix first, as the solutions they provide seem to fall in line with exactly what we need, and how we would want to manage our Sharepoint instance.”
