Hi Angela,

We started using Adagio in January and it is slower than we were used to with AccPac, however it of course has so many other benefits that we could never have achieved in AccPac.

To speed up starting up the modules what we do is use the Adagio menu from the module you have currently open, to open another module. This way you don't have to enter in username and password again. I think you can also add the username and password to your shortcut so you never have to enter it. Or you can be like us and just buy more lanpaks and leave the programs you most often use open. It saves a lot of time throughout the day.

Something else that we found really slow are searches and reports. We upgraded to a Gigabit LAN which has brought our search time down from over a minute to about 20 seconds. Still slow, but tolerable. The wait is worth it when you get the results you need.

Some reports are still in some cases 3 minutes or more. We are in the habit of starting the report then finding something else to do (Tim Hortons?) then coming back to it. Again, if the reporting has been tested and you know it will produce the results you need, it's worth the wait. It can be a frustrating experience when you're still experimenting and trying to find out what report will produce the right results.

We have found most other of our day-to-day functions in Adagio to be fast and efficient.
