Epicor 9 Group Blank Title 96735

Yahoo Archive
1
Good Day Drew:

1. I have compiled a list of E9 Users from various List Servers - it is
just my personal list, NOT a list server, so you have to "Reply All" to
send replies. If you send me your email address, I will send you the
list, and add you if you want - about 20 users.

There is also:

2. epicor-users@... mix of V8 and E9

3. MANAGE2KCLIENTS@... - Manage-2000 site - a few have
moved to E9. ( Sun was on M2K until 11/29/10)

4. Vantage@... Was the V8 group but some have moved to
E9.

5. There was an E9 group started but I think it was through Epicor Corp.
and I never persued it.

Sun went live on 11/29
in Epicor 9, 9.05.601B SQL-Unidata
Sun was previously on M2K (Manage-2000) 7.0 SP 5 (Informix)

Subject: [Vantage] Epicor 9 Group




In searching the yahoo groups I didn't see an established Epicor 9
group. Over the last year and a half this user group has been fantastic
- but, since moving to Epicor 9 I was hoping to find the same. Have any
of you moved from Vantage to Epicor 9 already? Is this forum being used
for Epicor 9 until an Epicor 9 forum is established?

Thanks!
Drew

As far as I know, there isn't going to be a new Epicor 9 group created
because Epicor 9 is the same program as Vantage 8.03 and 8.00 and 6.1 and
before that as well, it was just a name change, almost nothing more. Help
for all of the versions would work better having all data in one location,
much of which can apply to multiple versions of the product, no matter which
version it is.

There actually is an Epicor 9 group on Yahoo! It's not very active. As
others have mentioned, keeping E9 stuff here helps those who
might/will migrate and there is a LOT in common with V8.

Well, I'd argue that saying 6.1, 8.00, 8.03, and E9 are all the same
program is rather an overstatement.

Each of those releases represents a pretty significant set of changes
from the previous. 8.03 and E9 have a lot more in common with each
other than they do with 8.00 or 6.1. E9 was advertised as sort of a
'big fat service pack' for 8.03 users (yeah right).

But the point is well taken, and a lot of the wisdom from the 6.1 and
8.x releases can be applied to E9. And I'm guessing that, in terms of
the overall Epicor customer base, only a small fraction have gone live
on E9.

Anecdotal agreement with that: At a recent users group meeting for my
geographic area, versions were:

About 40% version 6 (including me) and many of us thinking about or in
the middle of an upgrade to 9

About 40% version 8, some staying on 8 and some considering upgrading to
9

About 20% version 9 -- a couple recent upgrades and a couple new
implementations from non-Epicor software in progress.

And a few older versions, including version 4.

Rob coming across snarky? Say it ain't so.



I remember starting a discussion about Vantage 8 being on its own board when
that came out. Back then, I was pretty set in my opinion that it would be
better. I've mellowed, and over the years, have gleaned quite a bit from
the older version posts.

We also tend to talk here about non-product-specific issues, such as
responsiveness of support, service pack quality, rumors, gossip, etc.
that would be lost if we were siloed into separate groups.

I realize that E9 customers in particular don't care as much about the
V8 discussions (but probably many/most V8 users pay attention to the E9
stuff since we're heading there at some point), but the sense of
community that we've created by being supportive of one another is worth
the extra hits of the delete key and wasted electrons.

My $0.02.

No worries Rob. I could have easily searched the forum for E9 activity but it was quicker to post. The last couple weeks have been wild with the migration and all. Good to know I have company in E9 though.

The Epicor 9 group that is started is on using Google groups.

I am in both groups. The activity is fairly minimal on the google group, but it is usually pretty bleeding edge also, so it is useful if you are on 9.05.600 and up like we are.
