Conceptionally, migrator is a great idea. My experiences have taught me to be cautious with it, much like Axton, I use it selectively and make sure I have the information in alternate formats as well. As I use it to build my dev/new prod environment, I'll post anything noteworthy.

The only tangible benefit I see from the product, since the ability to export/import form defs w/o losing data, is to control the leakage of new fields between my dev, test, and prod environments. I can accomplish all of this without migrator though, simply by copying/pasting the fields between forms/servers, then importing a view def, but I keep very detailed notes on my changes. Actually, I've learned to live without migrator for the most part due to past experiences (corrupted filters if they contain notifications, etc.). What is the nature of your platform dependant issue?

If at all do a clean install and then migrate/move the workflow you need. The data in most instances is so different an export/import is the best way to transfer what you need. Some of the newer emails I have seen from Professional Services state this much better than I can.

I've been having LOTS of issues with the whole 7.x Migrator package. It seems to be related to the type of machine that I am using. BMC have been working on it for some time. In general, are you satisfied with Migrator 7.x? Have you had problems with it? What kind? Did you report them to Support? Any information you can provide would be most helpful! -- Warren R.
