I am on a project using tzunami, and it is not without its problems – but one thing it has over echo (beside the ridiculous pricing) is that it exists. As far as I know echo still doesn’t have a production version – or maybe I am out of date?
I was on an airplane with Tzunami’s CTO (totally by accident – we found ourselves sitting across from one another) a month ago, and I asked about echo – he said that his price is about a tenth of what Echo are asking – but then again, I didn’t a quote from Echo. Now – the reall question is why do you need a deployment tool for! I chose tzunami because it offers great value for data migration from sharepoint 2003 to sharepoint 2007, but it also supports other systems. However – it is 100% data oriented – if it isn’t a file or a list item, it won’t get migrated. Permissions and so on can be mapped and set and they have a decent rule wizard to specify rules automatically, but it is not a tool I’d use for repeatable scenarios (something like “run this job every night”). For migration between sharepoint 2007 servers I’d suggest you look at metalogix. We had them present here in Canberra because I was so impressed with the two products that they have just for that – but again, they have limits to what the tool can do. This is my tool of choice for migrating content between a staging server to production server – because I can schedule it to run a job, and it is very very flexible (just not good enough for a complex migration between different environments).

Tzunami deployer and they are keen to find out the following: a) Which is better (value, features, ease of use)? b) Which has better support? c) Which is cheaper? d) Can they both deploy webparts, content, masterpages, lists, document libraries, permissions, metadata, content types etc Are there any other deployment tools you would recommend?? If you could let me know your experiences and thoughts on the above that would be awesome.
