Williams Baptist College Chooses ByWater Solutions’ Koha Support
ByWater Solutions, an open source community contributor and America’s forefront provider of Koha support, announced today that the Williams Baptist College’s Felix Goodson Library in Walnut Ridge, Arkansas is now live with their installation of the Koha open source ILS.
ByWater Solutions has completed the migration for the Felix Goodson Library and will be providing ongoing Koha Support and Hosting for them. Their custom mobile-friendly OPAC can be viewed at http://williams.bywatersolutions.com/.
Pamela Meridith, Director of Library Services spoke of their transition:
“We, the Felix Goodson Library staff, chose Bywater Solutions to host and maintain our Koha system based on their good reputation and competitive pricing. The video tutorials made available by ByWater’s Nicole Engard are premier in the field. We were pleased with the speed and ease of the initial migration and are happy with their skill in answering questions and solving technical issues. Quality customer service is my personal priority and work ethic and I believe ByWater shares this goal. Knowledge, reputation, and pricing were our three deciding factors in selecting ByWater for maintenance and hosting of our Koha system.”
