Office XP Migration Plans
(informal email survey summary conducted by User Support Services) May, 2002 |
| This is a summary of the various Office XP migration plans around campus. This data originated from an electronic survey of Technical Support Advisory Group (TSAG) members. |
| Area | Do you plan to install/migrate to Office XP? | If yes, which products? | If yes, where? | Other comments? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Academic Resources
(felicia.a.morariu) |
Yes, for Spring, 2002 | All; Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access | Everywhere | In my area I have around 120 users, hope to finish all by the end of the Spring Semester |
| Journalism
(allen.lin) |
Yes, for Fall, 2000 or later | All; Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access | Everywhere | |
| Biology
(william.krohmer) |
No plans to upgrade | What I said earlier about the "public beta" holds true for Office XP. Programs built on/for faulty operating systems, often share the same fate. I will continue to sit on the sidelines until I'm convinced that XP will meet our needs. | ||
| A&R
(eds@arrinet.com) Ed Stark |
Looking into it | Outlook XP | Outlook XP has security features that will probably make it the email program of choice | |
| SBS
(tim.boyle) |
40 users installed now | All; Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access | Everywhere | 240 stations installed by Fall |
| Humanities
(stephanie.nguyen) |
Happy with Office 2000 | If I find that Office XP works better than Office 2000 or has some very useful features, then I might consider it. | ||
| Education
(anthony.nguyen) |
No plans to upgrade | I feel that Office 2000 and Office 2001 (Mac) are adequate in our area | ||
| USU
(agonzale) |
Installs partially done | All; Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access | Everywhere | Installing 30 more in next few months |
| Extended Learning
(jim.moran) |
Still testing | All; Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access | Everywhere | Problems with XP files sent to 2K users |
| ECS
(Mark Siegmund) |
Yes, for Summer, 2002 | All; Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access | Everywhere | This migration will likely take place over summer. Labs will be the first big test Spring semester, with a minimum of 50% of workstations finished by the end of the summer |
