Excellent tool for migrations and SharePoint site

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful
The most useful tool for migrations because it allows you to continue to get value out of the product AFTER the migration is complete!

Product Reviews

Pros This tool is easy to use and allows you to migrate whole sites or portions of them to SharePoint 2007. The ability to move portions of a site is especially helpful if you want to re-vamp your sites or site collections and move sites, lists or libraries to different locations. Additionally this is a great tool to help you move from Development to Test to Production since it allows you to use a 2007 site as a source and a destination. I personally used it to migrate "a lot" of sites from 2003 to 2007. I also regularly moved sites and lists from Test to Production and I love it. The Batch feature is handy when you want to selectively pick lists or libraries for migration.
Administrators will also love that they can work from their desk rather than on the server. Once the server components are installed, the administrator simply launches the Migration Manager and gets down to work.
Cons None, this product works well and does everything as advertised.

Worth every penny!

SSMM is every SharePoint administrators dream tool. Easy to install, easy to license, easy to configure, and easy to use.

I've used many SharePoint tools over the years, and built my own as well, but hands-down, this is the best tool for SharePoint administration.

Product Reviews

Pros It just works. Rock solid. Easiest UI, best support. Highly recommmended!
Cons Wish I had learned about this years ago

Fantastic Product

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful
I researched many "migrtion" products prior to my purchase of SSMM. Hands down, it the best product out there.

One key factor to my selection was the method of migration. Other products hit the content data base for the migration, this would void your MS support. SSMM uses the SharePoint API and does and awesome job of it.

Product Reviews

Pros Performs Well
Intuitive UI
Easy to use
Feature Rich
API Level Migration
Cons Price (but worth it)

A mitigator of SharePoint's biggest risk....

5 of 5 people found the following review helpful
At Habanero Consulting, we've used it many times for internally SharePoin migrations and upgrades and for our clients' migration needs also.

Product Reviews

Pros The migration manager is an excellent tool to substantially mitigate the biggest risk in SharePoint upgrade projects - content migration. Content migration is an often neglected, and crucial task that is given cursory attention and Migration Manager performs it fantastically!

The (very) simple setup and easy drag and drop user interface masks the complexity and the time-consuming nature of the task at hand. It takes care of background worries like keeping versioning information, user information, and so on.....
Cons A few files slip through it's gaze and need to be moved over manually, but this might be user error... :)

A Simple Tool with Loads of Power

5 of 5 people found the following review helpful
An amazingly simple tool that provides huge amounts of power. Site Migration Manager (SMM) gives the user a simple copy and paste interface to copy items from one site collection to another. The user is able to copy everything from, multiple webs, single webs, webparts, pages, lists, list views, down to single items. A configuration menu before each copy begins provides the user with the ability to customize how the copy is performed: ignore certain items, certain libraries, map content columns, copy permissions, do not copy webparts, the options are very powerful. A with a simple clean interface which puts alot of power in the hands of its user.
