STEALTHbits Technologies, the provider of the industry's most comprehensive IT management and compliance platform for Microsoft-based systems, applications, and data repositories, today announced the release of StealthTOOLS Library Advisor for SharePoint, a free utility designed to quickly identify content versioning issues within SharePoint Document Libraries.

STEALTHbits' Library Advisor for SharePoint, the second product available in the StealthTOOLS freeware product portfolio, is a "plug-n-play" utility designed for anyone who populates, administers, or monitors SharePoint Document Libraries. It aims to solve the versioning dilemma, providing deep insight into Document Library configuration issues, stale documents and versions, best-practice violations, and capacity metrics, allowing technical and non-technical audiences to proactively manage the growth and stability of the Libraries they own.

The StealthTOOLS Library Advisor for SharePoint includes a robust set of features that enable users to:
