Hi Toney,

I'm right there with you, we're going ApogeeX at the beginning of October. Glad to know there's a place we can go for the tips/tricks and trouble shooting.

Thanks for the replies guys. All the gear arrives here Friday and installation/training starts Monday! Can't wait...

Tony,

Let us know how it goes. Another month and we will be where you are now.

Just remember nothing is perfect but the problems we have had with ApogeeX 3.5 are minor. Hope you went for the full SQL Database. We initially (with ApogeeX 2.5) went with the smaller version and had lots of problems with the amount of jobs we could keep on the system. Good Luck with the install Tony.

Hey thanks for the tip mtnman... i will check that out.

Peter, looks like won't be getting into ApogeeX until the same time you are now!!

Couldn't believe it, all of the gear turned up last Friday, the techs turned up Monday to install, then promptly tell us the area the sales rep has marked out for the installation is not going to be big enough to accommodate all of the gear! Turns out the rep hasn't allowed for accessing some panels, etc for servicing... just great. Anyway, to cut a long story short, all of our gear has gone back into storage and we are knocking down a wall at work to make the room for the gear to fit properly. Its going to take around another month but now until the room is done and we can get the techs back up. Not happy...

That sucks Tony. Good luck getting yourself up and running. I will be checking in with printplanet.com after today using the name PeterGr8. Hope to see you there too.
