Hi there. We have been using the GPRS client here in Zambia for about 6
months now. We currently have about 200+  mobiles (and growing)  in the
field reporting about 20 data elements (only) on a weekly basis. In general,
we have had very few problems technical problems. We have worked very
closely with the developers however to work out a few bugs and issues, but
all in all this has been really very minor stuff.

The system is being used specifically for targeted facilities for monitoring
of logistics and surveillance to support the National Malaria Control
Programme. There has been significant interest from neighboring countries
(Botswana, Tanzania as well as Senegal) which means that coordination among
efforts is particular important as we move forward.

As Knut says, establishing a firm DHIS2 backbone is key. We opted for a
cloud-based solution, which simplifies a number of issues and mitigates a
number of risks. I would encourage you to consider the same approach.

Regards,
Jason
