Jons Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Hello, does anyone have a ballpark figure for hosted SIMS from Capita? This is SIMS through the browser, hosted offsite. And what about from Birmingham LA? I presume we could choose between the two. Cheers all.

PhilNeal Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Staff users of any type. Support for the hosting is included but not for SIMS etc.

Jons Posted March 30, 2015 Author Posted March 30, 2015 I see, those would be Capita's prices then. And another SIMS hosted service from Service Birmingham - how does this compare I wonder? Most primary schools will have more than 10 users if you include teachers. Unless we can use a generic "teacher" login which can then select the class group to mark. Similar with Discover. Then we would only need the office accounts + 1 teacher account...
matt40k Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Unless we can use a generic "teacher" login which can then... Go wash your mouth out with soap. Also I think they have a min of 10 users anyway, or something. Still I guess they would rather your buy the Teachers App for the teachers, which is another £500... so that's an extra £1,000 per year to make your SIMS cloud based on top of your standard SIMS license. I suppose flipping this on it's head and turning it Capita positive, how many other MIS suppliers offer a discount for self-hosting? Or not taking the app?
Jons Posted March 31, 2015 Author Posted March 31, 2015 Anyone know how much Link 2 ICT charge for this? I would ask them but trying to avoid the sales patter..
Sylv3r Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Is their a demo account available - i'd be interested to see what the speed and usability is like via this platform compared to our on-premise install.
pooley Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Is this a fully hosted solution that offers the full fat client or is it a cut down offer of slg?
PhilNeal Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Fully featured SIMS, FMS & Discover. (Third Party links too) @Sylv3r I'll find out.
PhilNeal Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 @Sylv3r - yes a demo is possible if you contact our sales desk. 1
number34 Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 Phil, are there any minimum contract periods connected with the figures you have given?
Beduffshirl Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Anyone know how much Link 2 ICT charge for this? I would ask them but trying to avoid the sales patter.. If you log a case with the Link2ICT Service Desk they will be able to arrange a non sales patter conversation.... It will come through to MIS team
