Anyone here ever made the conversion from TM to PE? What was the experience like? How long did it take? Was there any data loss? Has it since been possible to report on historical data from Theatre Manager once it's in PE (for example, pulling data about your 0506 season that was handled in TM to compare to 0708 data from PE)?
We did a data conversion for a customer on TM nearly 5 years ago. They had 180 live events and we converted them in the middle of the night and it went very smoothly. TM has a pretty simple database schema which made the process easy. The only challenge is the access database is password protected but you can pull the data into MS SQL without knowing the password.
