The ILS interface is older and being phased out by the company. I am hoping for improved tools for gathering statistics and producing reports. I have also found that the structure and effectiveness of our consortium affects our satisfaction as much as the tool or the actual customer service of the company.

We really do not like Primo. I don't know anyone who does.

We've been looking at companies that offer cognitive search, but it seems most are focused on the whole company as a customer. Is this a topic of interest in the library community - I have not been keeping up well with current trends.

Debido a la falta de divisas, un presupuesto absolutamente deficitario y la obligación legal perentoria de migrar a un sistema de gestión de biblioteca basado en software libre, pero sin acceso a recursos presupuestarios para costear la migración, activamos la cláusula de licencia perpetua de Aleph en febrero 2016. Esto significa que ya no tenemos acceso a soporte por parte del proveedor. Se inició el proceso de migración a Koha en noviembre 2015, esperamos culminarlo en el 2018. La migración se está haciendo

Support issues connected with PRIMO upgrade took lot of time during 2017. ILS support was however running smoothly except for the Connection between catalogue records ALEPH/Primo

Our consortium was actively looking for a second generation ILS, but has put that project on hold for the time being. Our current system is adequate for print materials. We are considering switching our discovery layer to EDS and will make that decision by the end of this year.

The [...] Consortium has not completed the migration to Alma. My answers are for Aleph, since the [...] hasn't even begun testing Alma yet.
I didn't answer the questions about dealing with customer support because [...] deals with Ex Libris on our behalf.
I'll send you the size of our collection later.

We tried to get some recommendation from Ex LIbris on how to set up Aleph to conform with the EU GDPR directive. They did not consider this to be something worth looking into - they said Aleph is ok in this regard and that was that.

We have revoked our contract with Landskerfi, the Aleph vendor in Iceland, effective March 2018. Icelandic libraries are currently choosing a new library system, but the Iceland Transport Authority (that took over the Icelandic Maritime Authority in 2013) has no plans to participate in a new nationwide system. We have a small print library with very limited needs. The costs involved with taking part in a nationwide system far outweigh the benefits of taking part.

When our current ILS was chosen, it seemed like it would be a good fit for our consortium. That was 14 years ago and it's time to move on. We'll be initiating an RFP process in the near future.

I believe that Aleph is one of the best, if not the best ILS on the market. I really like the functionalities and its complexities as you can get what you want from it most times. Its Support staff is good especially the more senior ones who are more familiar with the product. Support is most active when Aleph is down and can be depended on to help you to get it up in the shortest possible time. I enjoy working with the team.

Aleph is a product that is more appropriate for other library contexts. It no longer works well for ours.
