We are interested in hearing people’s experiences too. We have a small home-grown thesaurus that we rely on very frequently. Wondering if the upgrade will interfere with this.

 

I also heard through the grapevine that GS is releasing TMS2016 soon though I don’t know many colleagues who have updated to 2014 yet.

Subject: Re: TMS 2014 upgrade

 

We just did it, and it doesn’t seem all that different from before.  Our constituent searches seem to run better for some reason, which is a plus.  And they moved “Alternate Numbers” (which we rely on A LOT) to the “Other” tab below the main object record.  Before it was on the drop down menu under “Registration” at the top of the screen.  Doesn’t really matter, but it took a little getting used to.  The thesauruses (thesauri?) are web based with the new version, but we don’t make use of those much, so I can’t really speak to the advantage or disadvantages of that change.  I think it’s worthwhile, just to stay current with the latest version.  The changes should not disrupt your day too much.  Hope this helps . . .
