- How would you best describe your transition:
- [ ] We have no plans of moving from V7 to V8
- [ ] We have considered, but not implimented V8
- [ ] We have V8 installed, but nobody knows how to use it
- [ ] We have installed V8 and have run in to a few problems
- [ ] We have successfully installed V8 and use it almost exclusively
- [ ] We never had V7 so there are no transition issues
- [ ] We are still waiting for V8.2
- [ ] Other ___________________________________________

- Have you used V7 Library Management System (LMS)?
-
- If you answered Yes, has the lack of a V8 LMS been the main
- reason you have not transistioned?

-
- -----------
- We are in the process of transitioning to V8.
- I would like to hear your reflections on your
- transition and transition attempts. I am guiding
- our transition to V8. With your comments hopefully
- I will be able to make ours a smooth one, learning
- from your experiences.
-
- This site uses all of MGC's software, except the IC
- stuff, somewhere on one of 35+ HP nodes.
-
- Sometimes we are feeling very much alone in are attempts
- to transition. Some of the problems that we have
- found, and Mentor Support has not encountered before,
- makes me wonder if anyone else is really transitioning.
- It just seems to me that anyone else that has gone through
- a transition would have found these problems by now.
-
- Mentor's Support Center has been helpful in guiding us though
- these problems.
-
- E-mail responses are preferred.
- Send you comments to steves@cserver.plexus.com
- I will summarize and post the responses if there is enough interest
- (anoninmity will be honored, if requested).
-
- Thanks in advance for your responses!
