Exact Software will be helping me with this transistion. Even though we have a 'Maintance Contract' the quote for the upgrade from Macola 7.5.103e to Macola ES is going to run us close to $60k.
Question is, I have a Windows 2000 Server (2 CPU). Should I get the SQL Server 2000, 2003 or 2005? Would 2003 or 2005 even work on Windows 2000 Server? I was going to buy the 1 process SQL Sever, since we have 20 users and with the extra Cals needed it would be about the same price. I would take, SQL Server would just run on the one CPU, correct?
Second question I got Macola 7.6 SQL from them on a CD. They wanted to come out and install it. I have experience in SQL, Macola, VBA, Access, etc.. You think it's something I could do? I would be first installing this on our 'Test' server. Basically my company told me that every hour I save from the quote Macola gave me, they will pay me an extra $25 per hour. I would like to do alot of it myself just to learn from it. What do you guys think?
