About Metalogix Migration Manager for Blogs and Wikis:

Metalogix Migration Manager for Blogs and Wikis enables organizations to rapidly migrate content from popular blog platforms and wikis to SharePoint 2010. This product supports Microsoft’s vision of SharePoint as both an enterprise content management platform and a social computing platform. Metalogix Migration Manager for Blogs and Wikis is an easy-to-use and convenient way to move content on popular blogging platforms and wiki content to SharePoint 2007 and SharePoint 2010. With its familiar copy-and-paste-style user interface, it lets you take full advantage of the social computing capabilities of SharePoint 2007 and 2010. Migration Manager for Blogs and Wikis makes it easier to create and find content in improved blogs (both simple and enterprise).

The Metalogix solution migrates content from any blogging solution that supports the Metaweblog API, RSS or ATOM. Blog posts, comments, and categories are preserved and users can be mapped. When migrating a blog from SharePoint 2007, it preserves version histories and user permissions as well. Migrate existing wiki sites to the SharePoint 2010 Enterprise Wiki template and take full advantage of SharePoint 2010's powerful publishing, search and metadata management options. The Metalogix solution preserves wiki pages, posts, comments, attachments, and categories with support for versioning and permissions. SharePoint administrators can perform migration activities remotely from any client machine and batch migration operations to run at any time. Migration is performed through the supported SharePoint and Blog APIs to assure compliance and data integrity.
