Microsoft SharePoint
Microsoft SharePoint is a content management system (CMS) that hosts business-relevant data for businesses of any size. With its document and file management, collaboration, system integration, and workflow automation features, failure of a SharePoint system affects far more than just email communication, it affects the entire business.
SEP sesam restores all SharePoint servers as well as all files that are saved in databases in no time. This includes site collections, sites, lists and the configuration of the SharePoint environment. With the SEP sesam extension for SharePoint, everything is backed up without disrupting applications.
