Chan Ying Yip writes “Resolvo Systems has officially announced the release of a Freeware version of MoveOver, the desktop migration tool that helps Windows users resolve their pains of migrating to a Linux desktop within a few clicks of the mouse.

The freeware version allows users to migrate their files, wallpaper, cookies and Internet Favorites.

About MoveOver

MoveOver is developed with one key goal in mind: to take the pain out of Windows to Linux Desktop migration. “Many people are increasingly realizing the value of Linux in achieving cost savings, security and performance. However, for a new Linux user, the manual migration process is always time consuming and challenging. MoveOver therefore is a compelling solution as it greatly eases the migration process for new Linux users,†said Mr. Yap Boon Leong, business development director of Resolvo Systems.

MoveOver comes with a user-friendly, wizard-driven interface to migrate various Windows environments, including documents, e-mail messages & settings from Outlook or Outlook Express, wallpaper, cookies, Internet bookmarks and other user-specific preferences, to major Linux desktop distributions. Installation is quick and fuss-free, and the best part is, users do not require any Linux know-how in order to make the switch.

MoveOver offers the following benefits:

1) 2-Step Migration
MoveOver is a self-explanatory wizard based program that is intuitively easy to use. In two simple steps, your new Linux desktop will look and feel like your Windows machine.

2) Save up to 90% of your time
No more spending long hours manually migrating to Linux. MoveOver reduces up to 90 percent of the time it takes to manually migrate to a Linux desktop.

3) No Gurus Required
Manual migration requires specialized technical knowledge and may result in frustrating human errors. MoveOver provides the ideal solution by automating the entire migration process, thus ensuring that all the files and settings are saved and intact.

4) Move only what you want
For advanced users, MoveOver provides the option to choose the files, settings and emails that they want on a new Linux desktop.

5) 2 Versions for Personal and Corporate Needs
For US$20, MoveOver Standard Edition is available for home users and small offices at MoveOver’s product website (http://www.resolvo.com/moveover).

Larger enterprises can turn to the MoveOver Enterprise Edition for efficient and hassle-free migration of 20-100,000 computers. For more information, please visit http://www.resolvo.com/moveover.
