New Release of the Muhimbi SharePoint Audit Suite v 1.1.0.0

Our SharePoint Audit product is no longer available. Instead, please check out this alternative product from our sister company: Aquaforest CheckPoint.

We are proud to announce the availability of the SharePoint Audit Suite version 1.1.0.0. Although this version adds a number of new features, the main focus has been on improving existing functionality, fixing bugs and improving scalability.

For those not familiar with the product we recommend reading the original announcement. In summary, the Muhimbi SharePoint Audit Suite is a suite of tools that allow auditing to be enabled automatically on new and existing Site Collections, Audit Logs to be viewed using a user friendly viewer and Auditing to be monitored using an Audit Monitor. The software runs on both WSS 3 as well as MOSS.
