Metalogix Announces Release of Replicator for SharePoint 5.0 With Innovative Patent Pending Features For Geo-Dispersed Multi-Server SharePoint Replication

New Features Including Adaptive Replication and Compression Address The Needs of Multi-Server SharePoint Environments and Reduce Network Overhead Costs

Metalogix Software, the trusted provider of content lifecycle management solutions for Microsoft® SharePoint®, Exchange® and Cloud platforms, today announced the general release of Metalogix Replicator for SharePoint  5.0. The new version meets the operational needs of multi-server SharePoint infrastructures that need the synchronization of content or immediate failover availability at wire speed for disaster recovery.

In March, Metalogix acquired Syntergy’s SharePoint business, including the market-leading Replicator for SharePoint, which is a web-based solution used to synchronize and manage business intelligence in real-time across multiple SharePoint environments.Replicator for SharePoint provides for two-way data synchronization by replicating content  and settings back and forth between server farms, even if they are not identical.
Replicator for SharePoint 5.0 features improved, patent-pending compression that reduces network overhead costs more than any other replication solution on the market. By utilizing Replicator for SharePoint 5.0, organizations with multiple SharePoint servers can have uninterrupted access to content that enhances employee productivity and efficiency and improves company performance globally.
The release of Replicator for SharePoint 5.0 includes a number of new features including adaptive replication, which provides changing environments, especially military installations, with the fastest access to their SharePoint. The solution automatically adapts to changing network conditions, and allows prioritization of specific content, to identify and use the most efficient route based on user-specific criteria. Adaptive replication also minimizes network traffic through its patent-pending micro-messaging system.
“The patent-pending features in Replicator for SharePoint 5.0 differentiates our solution from other SharePoint products and further demonstrates our team’s innovative leadership to create and develop breakthrough SharePoint solutions for organizations to move and manage content,” said Steven Murphy, CEO, Metalogix. “The 5.0 version of Metalogix Replicator for SharePoint allows organizations to address the rapidly growing needs of their multi-server SharePoint infrastructure while dramatically reducing network and administrative overhead as part of our strategy to continue to enhance the use and performance of our customers’ SharePoint platform investment.”
