Duplicate Files

One of the appeals of SharePoint is ability for multiple users to create, upload and modify documents in document libraries, often spanning across several SharePoint farms. The visibility of those documents is a key aspect of a well-managed SharePoint environment. However, as the complexity and volume of data stored increases, managing such environments can become quite challenging.

One scenario that is very likely to happen over time is different users uploading the same document to numerous document libraries, thus creating lots of duplicate documents. Keeping track of duplicate documents spread across multiple farms can be extremely problematic.

Stale List and Libraries

SharePoint comprises of Lists and Document Libraries, these structures are used to store items and documents. Users usually have the ability to create list to group items and document libraries to group documents.

Sometimes users can create a list or library and not use them for months or even years. A SharePoint Administrator or Manager might be interested in knowing if these types of List or Library exists.

Non Searchable PDFs Files

One of the most attractive features of SharePoint is the ability to search for documents that contain certain texts in them. For this search to work, the document uploaded have to searchable and the SharePoint crawler will have to index these files.

For these files to be crawled and indexed properly, they will have to contain text within them, the main problem here is that a very high percentage of documents in an office are scanned PDF documents with no text. Aquaforest CheckPoint allows you to identify the PDF documents that do not have searchable text in them.

Large Files

Storage space in SharePoint is a very important resource that should not be misused, sometimes users upload very large documents that could be compressed or saved in a smaller format.

Keeping an eye on this can be a very difficult task especially if the company has a high number of document libraries or SharePoint Farms..

Legacy Documents

With the release of Microsoft Office 2007, Microsoft released a new version of their file extensions. These new files are smaller in size, compressed and a easily readable by third party product.

With Aquaforest CheckPoint a user can create a report that will show the administrator a report of all the legacy documents stored in your SharePoint farm.
