Neverfail Delivers Continuous Availability for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Users

New Software Release Offers Maximum Accessibility and Protection for SharePoint Server 2007 Environments

AUSTIN, Texas – July 30, 2007 – The Neverfail Group (Neverfail), a leading global software company providing both a high availability solution and disaster recovery software, today announced the immediate availability of Neverfail for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 to its suite of continuous availability solutions. Neverfail software protects organizations through planned and unplanned outages, keeping users continuously connected to Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Server to access, share and manage projects and business-critical content.

“Office SharePoint Server 2007 is becoming more widely used as an information management tool in a variety of organizations, particularly now that SharePoint has received certification under the US Department of Defense 5015.2 standard,” said Michael Osterman, President of Osterman Research.  “Organizations that use SharePoint will increasingly rely upon it as a key element in their electronic discovery and compliance strategies, making high availability of SharePoint more critical.”

Among the benefits of Neverfail for SharePoint is its ability to protect and failover a SharePoint technology server over a wide-area connection (WAN). In addition, Neverfail offers protection for individual SharePoint technology servers within server farms allowing immediate out-of-the box protection without any server rebuild.

Neverfail proactively monitors the entire health of an environment built on SharePoint Server, including the physical server hardware, network infrastructure and operating system. Data is replicated between active and passive servers in real-time. Should a problem occur, the Neverfail solution can take pre-emptive, corrective action to fix the issue without resorting to a full-system failover. If a failover becomes necessary, Neverfail keeps users connected and working while a non-disruptive, seamless failover occurs to the secondary server, without requiring an Active Directory update.

In addition to protecting availability of information specifically held within SharePoint Server, Neverfail provides a complete content availability solution by protecting the related SQL Server, Exchange, IIS and file system infrastructure through additional application modules.

Neverfail for SharePoint delivers the potential of maximum availability and protection to the more than 85 million licensed SharePoint Server users.  Microsoft Office SharePoint Server is the fastest growing server product in its history, and two-thirds of people using Windows SharePoint Server (WSS) 3.0 have moved up or plan to upgrade to the 2007 version in the next year, according to Microsoft.

“Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 is fast becoming the de-facto business productivity server for information management and collaboration,” said Seth Patton, director of SharePoint Products and Technologies at Microsoft. “We congratulate Neverfail for providing a continuous availability solution to complement SharePoint. Neverfail will help customers remain connected to SharePoint no matter what type of outage may occur.”

Neverfail for SharePoint is available for both 32- and 64-bit deployments of Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 and Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003. Neverfail also offers a comprehensive line of high availability and disaster recovery solutions for the Microsoft platform including Neverfail for Exchange, SQL Server, IIS and File Server, as well as Neverfail for BlackBerry and Lotus Domino.
