• Larger enterprises with many NAS File Servers will find it convenient that the Enterprise Viewer displays all NAS assets in one place.
• A SharePoint Farm can have multiple Web Servers and thus multiple Agents and Clients, unlike other SRM Clients which typically involve a single computer. Rather than searching the Client Manager for every involved Agent and Client, the Enterprise Viewer allows you to review all assets and Summary information for the entire SharePoint Farm in one place.
