I wrote a fairly indepth response to this yesterday but for some reason it didn't post?
Anyhow, yes, our manager has never cared for gentran and told me to find a new vendor a couple months ago. He said that at a good time bc the minute we upgraded to the latest version, it started hanging every night and about twice during the day during the week. One of the problems is when a collection mailbox hangs in a "sending" status to a MAPI or Email mailbox~none of the reports in those mailboxes go out until the services are restarted. We had a case open for 2 months with support. The other one I'm not sure what happens, but I'll look in the scheduler and everything is just stuck in processing and again I have to restart. But now that I've been looking around, I really see how many other features they offer that I took for granted. But, it's got to go. :) and... honestly, I'm looking forward to the challenge... I've been using Gentran since I graduated from college back in the 90's. All of the comments have been appreciated, thank you! btw, I'm a she. ;) -----Original Message----- He said he was on Gentran:Windows. Not sure of the version. I agree that it's oftentimes easier to fix the cause of the breakage than it is to migrate to another platform, but this poster seems to have his mind made up. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Thomas Seay Sent: Tuesday, December 06, 2005 1:33 PM To: pauligan; [email protected] Subject: Re: [EDI-L] Yet another Migration to new EDI software question: --- pauligan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: What product are you currently on? Which version, etc? Are you sure that it is the Sterling product that is the problem or your environment? I have never heard of a Sterling product breaking (at least not on a Unix system). What do you mean by "breaking"? I would recommend you to move to a UNIX system. If you were on a Unix system, I would advise you to wait a bit and you could get SeeBeyond which will soon be bundled into Sun's JES. Otherwise I would go with GIS from Sterling. I would not touch anything from GXS, unless I enjoyed having nightmares. Thomas ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get Bzzzy! (real tools to help you find a job).
