SIMS Next Gen

SOLUS

Automatic essential upgrades on your SIMS software

SOLUS (SIMS Online Update Service) allows you to automatically perform SIMS upgrades on a workstation without intervention. A large number of schools, academies and local authorities are now using SOLUS as the principle method of updating their SIMS system.

Upgrading to SOLUS3

SOLUS3 is the replacement product for SOLUS2. The improved features of SOLUS3 will improve and ease the upgrade process and assist with the automatic delivery and maintenance of SIMS, SIMS FMS and SIMS Discover.

Features and benefits:

  • Scheduled updates giving you more control over when you upgrade

  • Complete SIMS system upgrade without end-user involvement

  • SIMS client software installed remotely reducing the need for a workstation visit

  • Automatic deployment of infrastructure by SOLUS3, saving support time

  • Improved reporting to help the deployment manager identify potential issues

  • The potential for local authorities to manage SIMS updates remotely for their supported schools.
