Hi yes,

Hi, Due to connect the classroom we now have 2x Aruba 7205 Controllers and 128 APIN315 Access points surplus to requirements. (the system is 5 years old), it cost about £80k new There are also 4 external AP's. We are looking for a good home for this system as it would be a significant upgrade to any school which isn't going to benefit from the CTC project and maybe has their old BSF system still installed, and as we received CTC funding we are only asking for a small transfer fee to take the system off us. The only rules are, we won't be providing support etc and it doesn't come with any warranties, and if you do agree to take the system then it is for the use of the school and is not to be sold on for a profit. If you are interested then please email me at [email protected], i'll give it a few weeks on here and then if not taken i'll sell it off. Thanks

Hi, We have recently been having an issue with the MS 2017 report builder which works along side Progresso reports. When editing a report the connection can fail, but then i can open report builder and browse to the reports from the open area, i can see all the reports and the folder structure but then when i try to open the report i get the remote server has closed the connection. So, when opening from Progresso it fails, The opening report writer first allows me in the 1st time, Then if i try again If anyone has had similar issues then if they could let me know what was done to resolve it that would be great. Thanks

Hi, thanks for the response, yeh, did that one a few weeks ago, they have basically caused us a nightmare which has resulted in us ending up provisioning our own data and turning GSync off, their support team couldn't resolve it in 6 days so in the end due to the amount of moaning i was getting from teachers we ran the scripts to populate the classes we have used in the past.. Hopefully they get it resolved and then i can use the matching tool and resync.

HI, has anyone got a honest review of Edu pay, we have recently become a MAT, we have Sims and Progresso MIS and are looking to move away from Civica (not happy with their support and multiple issues). If anyone has any experience and any comments/suggestions on their system before we meet with them next week they would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi, Does anyone have any experience of using an alternate SMS provider in Progresso, the system has the capacity to add in other providers as the out of box Progresso provider is very expensive. Thanks

Hi, Is anyone else having major issues with Wonde not provisioning Google classrooms and not getting much response from them, in the past we used to provision the classrooms ourselves but have taken on Wondes product which automates the process and matches our GADS setup, the idea being we not only have SSO into the Google domain on Windows machines but they can also access all other platforms Wonde support. All i keep getting from Wonde is we are working on it but it has been 3 days now and not getting much in return, i was wondering if anyone else is experiencing the issue and has had more information off them, just trying to decide if the time has arrived to drop the Wonde integration and fail back to the old as staff are starting to get impatient. Very very poor service and should have been working from day 1, especially now Classroom is our main online teaching platform. Thanks

Hi, We are looking at introducing Wonde so we can SSO onto a lot of applications the school uses, we have been looking at their SSO product but already have a populated GSuite using GADS, does anyone have experience of adding in Wonde SSO and running GADS to sync Google Edu passwords with AD, what i don't want to do is have staff using a separate password for GSuite, simply be able to get into Wonde via GSuite. They have redirected me with regards to licenses etc to resellers who say they are Google specialists but replied with not sure what GADS is so i'm not really trusting when they say yes we can still use AD passwords with Wonde. Any advice from people who may have this already setup would be appreciated.
