Josh I would be very intersted in seeing more information on this product or some contact details for the company Anton

He was the Head at my old school in Capua

So under the OFT rulings Capita have to supply SIMS softwareto Bromcom as a Technical partner who have coincidentally just developed a new MIS product and SIMS front end ?

Josh if it's for development for your school then there don't appear to be any fees. if you want to develop something for distribution to other schools then you may well need to invest in a developers license. I thinks it's two grand per annum.

Jenny what days are you going to be at BETT ?

Josh what did your local SMIS team say when you requested the business object documentation ?

When is FMS 7 due - is that a net version with SQL server ?

the cost will depend on the number of pupils on roll and whether you are a LA supported school or take your support direct from Capita.

It looks like a different part of Capita has made the acquisition - SIMS is Childrens Services, IT services are the team that purchased Carillion IT Services. I see this having little effect on SIMS and minimal change for LGFL or education customers.

have you checked there are no comms packages loaded such as anycomms ? Source of all my cheque print problems.

Eddie - it used to be very good but I don't think it's supported anymore.

I would certainly be interested in seeing your portal - can you post or PM log in details. We were put off the product last time we looked by it's lack of interoperability with SIMS. Has this now been fixed ?
