SIMS to iSAMS - Data Migration

[Malikwalian]

We are an International school moving from SIMS to iSAMS, I would to have some insight form the school, who have moved to iSAMS recently; were you able to migrate your data from the marksheets, such as previous termly assessments, target grades, mock grades, exam grades, CAT4 grades etc?

 

Thank you.

 

 

Got it!

We didn't do a migration to iSAMS but I highly recommend you make sure everything is migrated - especially the important stuff. Do a list! Talk to every office dept! What is crucial etc.

 

A few things at our end didn't migrate to Bromcom and by the time people noticed... it was too late. Even though we had a 'test' migration and people did not check. Instead.. they waited until we went live and not even right away to confirm what is/not there.....

 

To make matters worse.. some TIME later.. something to do with the Census was discovered and it cost the school a bit of funding.
