HEAT 9.0 has been Released!
 

Let SMA's certified HEAT professionals assist you with your HEAT or FrontRange ITSM upgrades to ensure a smooth transition!

SMA makes it easy for clients to get a quick start on leveraging the enhancements and new functionality of the latest versions of HEAT and FrontRange ITSM software. We offer a range of Upgrade Consulting Packages, including for the recently released HEAT 9.0.

SMA's approach to software upgrades is based on Best Practices and our years of experience of being the Number One FrontRange HEAT Solutions Provider.

Best Practices for Software Upgrades - The SMA Approach

SMA's Upgrade Consulting Packages follow these Best Practices to ensure a smooth and seamless transition:

1.   Conduct Infrastructure and Planning Discussion – SMA technicians meet with your HEAT or network administrator to understand your HEAT environment, discuss the tasks involved and outline the upgrade approach.

2.   Perform Upgrade on Test System – SMA performs a test upgrade on your HEAT Archive File offsite at our SMA facility (or on your own test system). The test helps validate the data conversion and mitigate potential upgrade issues.

3.   Perform Standard Functionality Testing on Test Upgrade Database – SMA has developed a protocol for evaluating the basic functionality of the test HEAT database.

4.   Assist with Production Upgrade – Once planning and testing is complete, SMA’s HEAT certified technicians will assist you with the installation of the HEAT upgrade on your HEAT system.

5.   Provide Availability for Post Upgrade Assistance – If any questions or issues arise after the conversion, SMA technicians are available to provide assistance with your questions.

Contact SMA to discuss which Upgrade Consulting Package is most suitable for your HEAT system.
