Talis Source goes into a Limited Release!
Some excellent news today - a Limited Release of Talis Source has been made available to several Institutions. A Limited Release is not limited in its functionality - its the full working system as will be made available later next week - it's just limited in the group of people having access to it. This is the final step in validating that the system has been successfully rolled-out and an opportunity to receive a final nod that everything is working as it should.
We have three institutions taking part - Portsmouth, Hants and Cheshire - so everyone should expect to receive some email requests from these sites, identical to UnityWeb requests apart from the Talis Source heading. These a real requests, and should be dealt with as normal.
One thing all of these sites asked me was "...but do we need training?". The answer is "No"! One of the things we validated through our roadshows was that it was essential we maintained the service "as is" to provide a seamless continuity. Apart from a name change and an updated colour scheme for the interface (which I must admit to rather liking!) to familiarise your staff and yourself with, there is nothing else you need to worry about. Hopefully, this will ensure a smooth transition for everyone.
If you have any queries, do not hesitate to contact Talis.
