SP2 Cascaded Release

SchoolPRO2 will be released using the 'Cascaded' release model. We expect this to make the transition to SP2 as easy as possible for our existing clients.

There are two primary ways in which software can be released. The first is the 'waterfall' approach. This approach provides the user with a completely new version and makes no provision for the user to access the previous version. This is quite acceptable for smaller applications with a few users. But it can cause headaches for larger applications. That is because every user needs to be trained and proficient in the use of the new package from day one. Also, all PCs need to be updated in a single day. And users tend to have a steep learning curve.
