Alexandria Library Automation Software

Pretty good, but...

I have been using Alexandria for several years, and I enjoyed the new features available in my upgrade to version 7 (from v. 5) last year. Being able to access the software over the Internet is wonderful and streamlines adding catalog-search computers. I feel like most of the menus and features are intuitive, and I love that the software searches for pictures of items in our collection on its own in the background. I look organized, and the students love being able to see cover art in their searches! However, I had some trouble with the software last year, and though tech support were kind and helpful, some of the software's functionality is still not restored. I wish that documentation for do-it-yourself licensees were more basic and easy for amateurs to use. I understand that hosting on the cloud is easier for Companion Corp., but my budget won't allow for that.
