I've done one live install, which I thought went rather well, but the
site couldn't deal with a couple of issues and instructed me to
rollback. I had to copy and paste two days of notes between the
systems as there is no backwards conversion - you can export to XML
but the import into MD2 doesn't work.
I've done one preliminary install and after examining the data the
doctor decided not to go ahead with the upgrade at this time, similar
errors to the first one.
I did an install on my test machine in the workshop, using a variety
of data files, and can't reproduce the kind of data errors we got on
these two.
It's certainly better (could it be worse after so long?), and a new
site would be better off on MD3 compared to MD2.
I know JVD and PS have both converted and are very happy (are you
boys on this list?).
I have major problems with MSSQL databases and as you know have been
recommending Genie and Totalcare for many years.
I'm currently telling my clients that if they have to suffer the pain
of conversion why not convert to a better supported / cross
platform / no advertising system, but usually their eyes glaze over
like they do when I talk about Telstra.....
cheers,
Peter.

Hi all,
Has anyone had any good experiences with MDW3 yet ?
All I keep hearing is gloom and doom.
And my clients keep wanting to know when they can switch.
Ok give me the bad experiences too.
