Requirements

If your school

  • is networked
  • has a SQL server
  • has timetabling software
  • uses Outlook (not essential unless you wish to utilise this feature)

You are 95% ready to have Daymap installed.

Below is a detailed list of requirements you will need to get started:

  • Windows Server 2000/2003 (including IIS 6 and ASP.net)
  • Windows Active Directory
  • Microsoft SQL Server 2000/2005
  • Remote Access for support (preferably broadband)

Optional Requirements

  • MS Outlook 2000 or newer for Outlook integration
  • MS Excel 2000 or newer for Excel integration

Loop Software will install and configure Daymap to ensure it is up and running smoothly in your school, and matches your schools particular requirements, whether you have three periods in a day or seven, 300 or 3,000 students, one campus or three.

When your school is ready, this process can take anywhere between three to seven days. This investment of time in the installation ensures a stable, reliable and low maintenance system - which teachers and administrators ultimately trust, and which IT staff don't need to spend valuable time maintaining.

Ongoing support and maintenance

Once Daymap is installed, there is very little maintenance required. The integration with the timetable and administration systems are automated and will occur seamlessly on a daily basis.

All technical support is by email/phone, is done remotely and is included in your annual licensing. This means that you don't need to wait for support, all issues can be handled quickly and efficiently by software professionals that understand the schools requirements.
