TERMINALFOUR offers Serena Collage customers rapid migration path
TERMINALFOUR, Europe's fastest growing content management company, today announced the availability of a migration application specifically designed to allow for the rapid migration from the discontinued Serena Collage product to TERMINALFOUR Site Manager. The launch follows the announcement that Serena Collage will no longer support its content management systems (CMS) following a fade-out period.
A large number of users of the CMS system are now facing the prospect of sourcing alternatives and manually migrating content. This process is likely to be both costly and time consuming - potentially taking six months to a year.
Piero Tintori, CEO of TERMINALFOUR, said, "As TERMINALFOUR Site Manager operates on a very similar technical platform to Serena Collage, albeit with greater levels of functionality, it was a logical decision for TERMINALFOUR to provide a specific application to allow for the automated migration of content from Serena Collage to TERMINALFOUR Site Manager. This migration can take place very quickly compared with alternatives. "
The migration application points to the Serena Collage content repository. Following some basic configuration, the application maps the Serena Collage content into TERMINALFOUR Site Manager's repository automating its importation. Once imported, the new site can be published and tested within a short period of time. This action alone will save any Serena Collage customer many months of manual content migration to other competing products..
"One class of Serena Collage clients likely to benefit from the migration application is the higher education sector. TERMINALFOUR has been serving this sector for over a decade, with thirty-seven colleges and universities on the books. For universities currently using Serena Collage, the speed of migration to TERMINALFOUR Site Manager coupled with our professional services will ensure that migration is conducted efficiently and effectively", said Tintori.
