"I echo Justin's comments about OUCampus. I can't say enough about their customer service - I never feel like I'm bothering them or have a "stupid" question to ask and their response time is great. Easy to train…"

Kathie Kentfield replied to David Floyd's discussion OUC End-user Training in the group OmniUpdate"In the beginnig I offered training sessions for my users and the room held approx 25 people (computer lab with overhead projector - some people prefer to watch, others are more hands-on so they could follow along on their screens). …"
Kathie Kentfield replied to Carol Sykes's discussion Thinking about purchasing OU Campus for our Institution, got any feedback? in the group OmniUpdate"When we were looking for a CMS a few years ago, our final choices were very similar in features. I'm glad we went with OUCampus - their customer support is really really good. We're a small institution so to me, that makes all…"
Kathie Kentfield replied to Chris Demers's discussion Crisis Communication Plan"We are thankful that we moved our website offsite to a third party host earlier this fall. Our campus is still without regular power, 5 days after Storm Alfred hit the northeast (we are using generators and opened back up…"

Kathie Kentfield replied to Michael Matzkin's discussion Should we convert to a content management system?"I meant that I would not do the whole thing at one time. First split out content and create an intranet and an Internet. Do the redesign of the site as another project. Implement the CMS as another project. To do them all…"
Kathie Kentfield replied to Victoria Bomben's discussion Training Programs for newly deployed CMS Systems - Any great examples?"We are a small institution and are using a different CMS. I am responsible for providing training. I have scheduled numerous in-person training sessions with varied degrees of success. Last fall I polled our CMS users and did not…"
Michael Fienen replied to Kathie Kentfield's discussion Emergency Coverage"Also, if you are assigning others the ability to post some kind of emergency message, make sure they are trained and drilled at least twice a year, maybe more. Otherwise it is a sure bet they will forget how to use the system in a moment of…"
"I agree that there should be a larger team able to post emergency updates to the home page, and that team should be identified with the assistance of the College's emergency management team. Ultimately, the role (as I see it) should be…"
Erik Hagen replied to Kathie Kentfield's discussion Emergency Coverage"That's a good question, and a reminder for me to look at this issue again. I'm at a small school as well with 3 staff. I have some ideas on how this might work. Here's what I'm thinking for my situation.
1. Figure out who should…"
Kathie Kentfield posted a discussionEmergency Coverage
We are a small college with 2 staff members dedicated to the website. We are essentially the go-to people when it comes to updating the website during closings, snowstorms, etc. An issue arose because this weekend neither one of us is going to be available to update the website in case of an emergency. Although the likelihood of something happening is small, we still need to ensure that we have coverage in case something does happen. How do other institutions handle this coverage?
Kathie Kentfield replied to Michael Matzkin's discussion Should we convert to a content management system?"I have to ditto Justin's posts. We are a small campus and until recently I was the primary web person - meaning that departments would send me web content changes and complain because it took so long for me to implement those…"

Kathie Kentfield replied to Marc Westenburg's discussion New CMS"OUCampus user since Spring 2009. Easy to train users, easy to set up accounts. Can generate nice custom reports so I can see at a glance which user accounts are dormant; which pages are stale and should be reviewed by the departments (can see last…"
Dan Alves replied to Kathie Kentfield's discussion New virtual tour won't play on web site in the group Multimedia"Are you still having this issue? I have some experience with XML based flash pieces. Usually you have to ensure the directory you are pointing to is correct. Sometimes it is an absolute path others it is a relative path. However, that would not…"
