Call me a pessimist, but all went well for a couple of weeks until they all realized they needed reports that don't exist in the new system and all the users individually realized the new system didn't enable the thousands of workflows that people had adapted their old systems to do that the managers didn't know about.
By this time your sister had hopefully moved sideways with "another successful migration" added to her resume.
- JoeAltmaier 7y agoNope. Still running after a decade; still selling tires. Still adapting to requests for reports and workflow issues, as is possible with web-based tools. Because they are so much better than the old C-coded static tools and static reports running on a PC (not to mention paper). That's why we use web tools after all.
- brokenmachine 7y agoThat's not at all like any of the "big bang" migrations that I've been involved in unfortunately.
