DeDup for SharePoint (SaaS): A clean workspace without infrastructure overhead

In today’s fast-moving world, order and efficiency in SharePoint matter. With DeDup (SaaS), you remove duplicate files across SharePoint without installing, configuring, or maintaining any infrastructure on your side. We host, operate, and scale the service so you get a faster, tidier, compliant SharePoint with minimal effort from your teams.

DeDup identifies duplicates using Microsoft Graph identifiers and file hashes, works on metadata (without opening file contents), and delivers clear dashboards and reports for manual review or controlled automated cleanups. In the SaaS model, security, continuity, and operational costs sit with us—complete logging, monitoring, and continuous patching provide a true “set-and-forget” experience.

Why DeDup as SaaS

• Zero customer infrastructure – onboarding via Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) consent; no servers or services to deploy.
• Always up-to-date – continuous updates (security patches, performance improvements, and new features) delivered automatically, with release notes, no maintenance windows on your side.
• Predictable costs – subscription per volume (files scanned); compute, operational storage, and monitoring included.
• Operated and secured by us – patching, operational backups, 24/7 observability, and auto-scaling for peak loads.

Security & data protection (SaaS)

• SaaS processing – scanning and reporting run in our cloud platform, designed for strict data separation.
• Metadata-only by design – detection relies on Microsoft Graph file hashes; file contents are not accessed or stored.
• Minimal metadata footprint – we retain only what’s required for detection, reporting, and cleanup orchestration.
• Tenant isolation by design – every customer is logically isolated; operational data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
• Least privilege – we request only the permissions strictly needed via Microsoft Graph and respect your existing SharePoint permissions.
• Auditability – exportable, audit-ready reports for compliance teams.
• Configurable retention – flexible retention plus full deletion upon request or contract end.

Product experience (same precision, less effort)

• Intelligent duplicate detection – high accuracy via Microsoft Graph file hashes and metadata; supports documents, images, and more.
• Centralized dashboard – end-to-end visibility: from scanning to reporting to actions (manual review or automated cleanup).
• Bulk & Auto Cleanup – run manual reviews or policy-driven automated cleanups.
• Smart Cleanup Strategies – keep “last modified” or “smallest size” automatically.
• Scan Scheduler – schedule recurring scans (daily/weekly/monthly) and receive email summaries for full visibility.
• Multi-site / multi-library – cover your entire SharePoint tenant while honoring existing permissions.
• User-centric design – an intuitive interface for admins and power users; no deep technical expertise required.

What we handle vs. what you control

• We handle (SaaS) : infrastructure, scaling, patching, monitoring, operational costs, and continuous updates—security patches, performance improvements, and new features—delivered automatically with no action on your side (release notes provided).
• You control : your SharePoint data and permissions; when and how cleanup is applied (manual or automated), and where reports are delivered.
