Project overview

Abto Software development team started working on the data migration and cloud content management tool for SharePoint and Office 365 for our customer, a SharePoint migration provider from the USA in 2015. Metalogix develops software specifically designed to accelerate and simplify the work with SharePoint document workflow.
