MMS 3.0 is a lot easier then the old 2.2 version. 3.0 will be availible this summer and can be configured by the customer. It's not that clunky and now comes with a nice wizard that helps you through the process. You still needs to know what you are doing because it's not really easy. The biggest thing missing I think is a preview to see how the changes are going to look. I guess that's just an other reason to force us to get us to test this is in a test environment :-)

When you say "clunky to set up and configure", are we talking months?

The main reason they had consulting attached was that MMS was fairly clunky to set up and configure, and unless you knew what you were doing, could tie youself up in knots fairly quickly. Obviously not something MS wanted to let "into the wild", as customers who had problems with it invariably came away with a bad impression (through their lack of knowledge of the product). ..and it wasnt just MCS, any of the major "certified" partners could assist you with MMS design / implmentation / deployment (did some consulting on MMS while @ Compaq/HP).
