An Appspace Update

AppspaceWe have successfully installed the updated Appspace (formerly Nexus) software on a new server. As mentioned in our recent newsletter, we are upgrading Appspace to the latest version of 5.8 from our current version of 4.2.2 to enable new features, performance improvements, and the ability to add additional networks for more players on campus.

We are currently migrating content over from the current Appspace server at digitalsigns.smu.edu to the new server. Starting next week, we will be testing the new server and updates. We will then work with you to update the server settings on your Player PC to point to the new server. Once the Player PC is directed to the new server, you will need to upload any layout changes made sine April 18th to the new player application.

We will have a trainer on campus next week for anyone interested in learning the new system. You can register for the training by going to smu.edu/ITTraining. We will offer additional training later this summer.
