SIMS Service Manager

SIMS Services Manager (SSM) is a new product that manages the link between SIMS and cloud-based products such as the SIMS Teacher App, Agora and InTouch. It has been designed with the intention that it will replace other, older methods of data exchange (such as using VPNs), and unify them into a single technology. It also enables you to configure options relating to data exchange for various cloud-based products in one place.

To remove the need for schools to install and set up SSM, the SIMS 2014 Autumn Release installs it on the SIMS SQL Server automatically as part of the upgrade.
