You must be fare. Some software vendors aren't coping. As mentioned before
on this forum, the one I'm using is coping very well. Our downtime doing
minor or major upgrades is zero.
Cedric,
I am being fair. I'm suggesting that a particular technology carries a
lot of overheads which have been made worse by government
decisions/indecisions.
Also it does not always follow that you can generalise your experience
in a small practice where you have the skills to do-it-yourself to:
1. Much bigger practices with much more complex data sets
2. Practices without in-house gurus
3. Practices that try to cope on their own when they should be paying
for quality technical support
4. Practices that aren't getting the support they are paying for.
5. Solo practices where the costs and stress are getting too much,
regardless of the simplicity of their software and its use.
Most of our practices are using MD2 still, which is far simpler to
manage than any of the MS SQL products. take the streamlined authority
update. It was very simple to update in MD2. Not so in MD3. Do you have
it in BP?
Marvellous if you did, what about the other SQL products?
Also what about the no longer supported Medical Spectrum? I'll be seeing
my GP on Friday, and I'll ask him if he can do streamined authorities.
I'll let you know next week.
