Axceler Announces ControlPoint 2



Features Enhanced Analysis of SharePoint Activity and Site Usage

WOBURN, Mass., Sept. 23 / / - Axceler, the global leader in administration software for collaborative platforms, today announced ControlPoint 2, the next major release of one of the fastest growing administration tools for Microsoft SharePoint. ControlPoint 2 tightly integrates permissions management and usage analysis with the powerful ability to make critical changes immediately. In addition, ControlPoint 2 includes streamlined navigation, detailed trend analysis, a vastly improved interface, and new capabilities that allow you to ensure consistent appearance and behavior across your entire farm.

"Axceler did a great job of building on SharePoint to create a very powerful tool for exploring, analyzing, and taking administrative actions in a variety of SharePoint contexts. Axceler also has extensive experience in the Notes/Domino market so they are very familiar with real-world collaboration/content management administration modus operandi and challenges, and ControlPoint 2 reflects that expertise," said Peter O'Kelly, Principal Analyst at O'Kelly Consulting, "ControlPoint 2 complements SharePoint in fundamental ways from which all enterprise SharePoint administrators could benefit."

Using ControlPoint 2, you gain a better understanding of exactly what is happening in your SharePoint environment, whether you are looking for trends across your farm, across Web applications, within site collections, or just at the site level. ControlPoint 2 gives you detailed information so you can now analyze historical data as well as real-time information, vastly improving your management visibility. ControlPoint 2 lets you drill into user and document activity so you can monitor what documents are being accessed the most and who is accessing them.

Analysis and search results are now tightly integrated with actions, making it easier to identify problems and act on them immediately. Typical actions include setting, duplicating or deleting permissions, setting site properties, deleting sites, or adding users to a group. ControlPoint 2 also has a new interface so you can collect better information and navigate quickly throughout farms. New controls make it significantly easier to use and include right-click, drag and drop, multiple selections, collapsible sections and context menus.

"With this release, Axceler demonstrates our growing momentum in the SharePoint marketplace," said Axceler President Michael Alden. "Our goal is to provide customers with extensive visibility and insight into their SharePoint environments and give them the ability to make changes easily."
