A AvePoint Case Study
Sächsische Informatik Dienste (SID), the IT arm of the Saxon State Ministry of the Interior, needed to upgrade its eight-year-old SharePoint 2007 environment to SharePoint 2013. The organization required a direct, full‑fidelity migration completed within one month without disrupting end users, and their IT team lacked the capacity to perform the upgrade—while an intermediate migration to SharePoint 2010 was not an option.
COMPAREX used AvePoint’s DocAve Migrator to scan and selectively migrate content, map source and destination environments, and preserve all metadata while allowing users to continue working in the old system. The direct 2007→2013 migration was completed within the one‑month window, minimized disruption, eliminated the need for a SharePoint 2010 interim step, and delivered a fully functional, modern SharePoint 2013 portal.
