    Some of us have started adding our own now. Certainly for [SIMS].

    Is CMIS serco?
    Could perhaps do with a [general] or [cross platform] and maybe an [open source] . there's too many around at the mo' to be specific.

    CMIS name no-longer exists Shaun (well does in my mind and internally when you get an "old-timer") Its Facility now.

    But I'd put Serco as a lot of people call it that and they have actually got more than just Facility as an MIS so maybe Serco is a better tag

    You might want to add PARS to that list as it's a separate bit of software to SIMS from another company

    Wouldn't Progresso come under the Serco umbrella?
    There is a sticky thread in MIS forum, where i started a different discussion, when i went through and tagged all the most recent threads.
    I'll see about adding, TASC and ASPEN.

    No needs to be separate as its a completely separate product range and shares no ties with Facility so best be on its own, thus things you do in facility wont work in Progresso etc...

    @john - I know it's not consistent at the moment, but the idea is, they differentiate the companies' product suites, so it's easier to filter on them. At the moment, there are so few other than SIMS, that are discussed, i left them as they are. I've got CMIS changed to Serco, so that can capture any of their products. Does that sound okay? Maybe down the line, we'll need sub-prefixes, but you know there are hardly any support issues for Serco anyway, you just want a Progresso fan club to be set up

    @GREED - Aspen is there now - don't abuse it

    Also put in TASC as PARS and Insight have been getting quite a lot of mentions lately.
