Full-featured Management of all Enterprise Content – All attached content can be managed using all of SharePoint’s management and collaboration functions – including versioning, workflows, full-text search, and alerts – as well as DocAve’s data protection and management solutions, all as if it was residing directly in SharePoint’s SQL Server content database

Support for all Network File Shares and Cloud Storage Systems

Comprehensive Document Management – The attached content can be associated with any of SharePoint’s standard and customized metadata fields as well as integrated with SharePoint’s native permissions

Seamless Integration with SharePoint Search – All attached content is fully integrated with SharePoint’s native, full-text search functionality, as well as all other search tools leveraging standard SharePoint APIs

Total Interactivity with Client Office Applications and Third-party Tools – Attached content can be presented and modified directly through Microsoft Office applications, or acted upon by third-party tools, just as if the content resided in SharePoint’s SQL Server content database
