In earlier versions of Evergreen, there was a driver for handling
credit card payments from authorize.net, an (apparently) well-known
credit card payment manager in the US. That wouldn't work for us in
Canada, so I haven't followed that part of the development; maybe
someone south of the 49th would know more about that part of
Evergreen's functionality.
The beauty with open source software is that, if handling payments
through a particular bank or payment processor is important to you,
you can develop the necessary software to make Evergreen interface
with that bank if you have the necessary expertise, or consider it
part of the expense of migrating to have that functionality developed
by outside professionals.

Quoting Lori Bowen Ayre <[email protected]>:
There is a fee for migration IF you hire someone to help you with
that! Remember, none of the software costs money so you are only
paying for services you decide you need. There are a number of
options for getting help with migration, conversion, implementation,
planning, etc (Equinox, ByWater, PTFS, Alpha-G to name the ones I know
of).
You may have to pay your current vendor in order to extract your data
but you should talk to your current vendor about that. Sometimes
there are workaround to that as well....
I'll let someone else address your other questions about the features
and how well those particular features work.

Hello
For anyone who has implimented the Evergreen system, is there a fee of any
type? Monthly, yearly, etc. How was the transfer of data from one system
to another? How well does the system work for paying fines and using
debit/credit cards? Any issues with that.
Thank you very much,
Georgette
