It has several integrated modules for managing users, technicians, cataloging, opac, etc. The version I've worked with was a bit slow when dealing with thousands of records and the GUI was poor. I wouldn't recommend it, I believe there are better solutions. In 2008/9 I've worked for a year with <a href="http://www.iii.com/products/millennium_ils.shtml" target="_blank">Millennium software</a> at University of Coimbra Libraries - it has museum and archival modules also. All I can say is that it was a good experience, easy to use, fast, with a fair user interface. I've tried other national software here in Portugal, but I don't know if it is available in other languages (<a href="http://www.sistemasfuturo.pt/" target="_blank">Sistemas do Futuro</a>, MatrizNet).</p> <p>Hope this was useful.</p> <p>Bruno</p> Wed, 11 Aug 2010 10:25:02 +0000 bruno comment 3364 at http://www.museumsandtheweb.com
