DocAve Auditor

SharePoint is a powerful and popular collaboration platform and digital repository. To meet compliance obligations and optimize platform performance, monitoring and auditing SharePoint access and user behavior is absolutely critical.

DocAve Auditor empowers SharePoint administrators and managers to track and record ALL SharePoint interactions, including:

  • Usage Activity
  • Searches
  • Security Changes

This vital information not only enables intelligent strategic planning, but also confident compliance with regulations and best practice protocols. And it works for all SharePoint 2003, 2007, and 2010 environments!

As with all AvePoint software, DocAve Auditor leverages only fully supported Microsoft methodologies and API’s.

Key Advantages of the DocAve Auditor

Know Who Has Accessed What and When

Record and track all user interactions, security changes, and search queries in any or all of your Microsoft SharePoint 2003, 2007, and 2010 environments. Pull reports and view data by numerous attributes such as by Time Viewed, Modified, Deleted, Added, Renamed, User, Workflow, etc. This provides a simple way to audit securities, investigate usage patterns, and monitor sensitive information.

Track Employees’ SharePoint Usage

See everything an individual employee or group of employees has done and is doing in your SharePoint environment, including items viewed, content changed, and security setting changes. This information can be used to address compliance concerns, manage employee productivity, and improve ease-of-use.

Track an Item Through its Entire Life: From Creation, Modification to Deletion

See what happened to a document, including when it was created and by whom; who has viewed it when; how it has evolved through versions, edits, and name changes; and when it was deleted and by whom. DocAve Auditor provides insight like no other tool into how content is being used and what is going on in your Microsoft SharePoint environment.

Audit SharePoint Search

See who has performed a search, for what, and when. See how often an item is returned in search results. Data can be used to aide in search optimization or for compliance purposes.

Note: Securities and search audit information and other features may not be available for WSS v2 or SPS 2003. Please contact sales for further information.
