New and Improved: MetaVis Information Manager, TITUS Classification for Microsoft Office, Policy Patrol Archiver, and More

MetaVis Releases Information Manager for SharePoint 2010

MetaVis Technologies has announced MetaVis Information Manager for SharePoint 2010, which lets users bulk import, copy, and classify content directly from the SharePoint user interface. Information Manager is embedded directly into the SharePoint 2010 ribbon, letting authorized users classify, upload, and copy content using familiar controls and interfaces. Information Manager allows authorized SharePoint users to copy content between different SharePoint sites, site collections, list and libraries, as well as bulk import from File Shares (while retaining file system metadata) and tag in one process from the SharePoint ribbon.

“While SharePoint 2010 provides tagging and classification technology, it is limited to individual items, making it an underutilized feature,” said Peter Senescu, President and Co-founder of MetaVis Technologies. “Having classification capabilities and not using them is an opportunity lost for organizations. MetaVis Information Manager makes importing and tagging content seamless and easy. SharePoint information becomes well organized, manageable and most importantly, searchable.”
