Soarsoft Africa, a specialist of archive, migration, messaging and collaboration solutions and distributor of Metalogix solutions in southern Africa, has announced Metalogix’s acquisition of Idera’s highly successful and profitable SharePoint business, including the market-leading backup and monitoring products, SharePoint Backup and SharePoint Diagnostic Manager. The acquisition of Idera’s SharePoint products, customer base, brands and all related assets expands Metalogix’s suite of best-of-breed content infrastructure management software and strengthens the company’s position as the fastest-growing SharePoint Independent Software Vendor (ISV).
“Metalogix’s expansion and growth as the most complete specialist software vendor for SharePoint solutions has been phenomenal and has allowed us to quickly expand our offerings to new and existing clients. In each case, Metalogix’s acquisitions have been ’best of breed’ with leading solutions that have been quickly integrated into the existing capabilities. As a result, it has been relatively easy for Soarsoft to expand local implementation, training and support facilities to local partners and customers. Soarsoft is excited by the acquisition and looks forward to assisting local organisations with any requirements or queries they may have in understanding all the new features and benefits available,” says Chris Hathaway, Director at Soarsoft Africa.
Metalogix suite of best-in-class SharePoint products now includes Idera’s SharePoint Backup product, the industry’s fastest SharePoint backup technology, which delivers instant deployments and full farm protection of business critical content. Metalogix will integrate SharePoint Backup with Metalogix StoragePoint, the industry-leading storage optimisation technology, to provide lightning-fast speeds for the backup and recovery of Terabytes (TB) of content in just minutes, instead of hours or days. SharePoint Backup also features easy, granular document recovery capabilities and powerful backup file compression that saves storage space, which is essential as organisations work to manage a rapidly expanding volume of SharePoint content for today’s increasingly collaborative, global and mobile workforce. Metalogix will also expand the proactive real-time visibility and control capabilities of its best-in-class software suite with the addition of Idera’s monitoring product, SharePoint Diagnostic Manager. Additionally, SharePoint Enterprise Manager and Audit products will be upgraded and swiftly integrated into the recently-launched Metalogix ControlPoint for SharePoint Governance and Administration technology.
“Today Metalogix is once again improving the use and performance of the Microsoft SharePoint content management platform with the industry’s most innovative and fastest backup and recovery software, which enables enterprise SharePoint administrators, IT executives and now business line professionals to quickly and easily backup and restore TB of content in minutes, with a few clicks, instead of taking hours or days,” says Steven Murphy, CEO of Metalogix. “The powerful combination of Metalogix and Idera’s industry-leading SharePoint products squarely delivers on our mission to provide customers with the industry’s best-in-class portfolio of content infrastructure management software to deploy, operate and protect Microsoft SharePoint platforms on-premises and in the cloud.”
“The integration of Idera’s SharePoint business with Metalogix portfolio of premier products for the management of the entire SharePoint lifecycle will exponentially increase efficiencies and value for our customers managing enterprise SharePoint environments. These customers will also benefit from Metalogix’s larger, global, 24 by 7 customer support. This transaction accelerates our focus on a suite of Application Performance Monitoring (APM) solutions that drive exceptional customer value,” says Randy Jacops, Idera’s CEO.
With over 14,000 customers, in 86 countries on 7 continents, Metalogix is the fastest growing SharePoint-focused Independent Software Vendor (ISV) in the world. Metalogix is committed to integrating and enhancing the combined product portfolios to help customers enhance the use and performance of SharePoint. New and existing customers will benefit from Metalogix expanded reach, scale and resources, including its industry-leading LIVE 24 by 7 telephone and online support program, which helps our customers maintain the highest level of availability to support the demands of always-on content sharing and collaboration.
With over 12,000 customers, Idera will continue operating multiple, profitable product solutions, including Idera’s award-winning SQL database monitoring and server backup products, as well as the recently acquired CopperEgg and Precise Software business units.
